Featured in Roblox’s Halloween Spotlight, The Mimic challenges players with two intense stages filled with eerie settings, time-sensitive tasks, and formidable enemies. Successfully finishing these missions grants exclusive Runes and Keys necessary for advancing in the Spotlight hub. This walkthrough details strategies for conquering both phases and claiming your seasonal rewards.
Halloween Trials: Key Strategies

The first challenge requires destroying three pumpkins hidden within a haunted asylum. A hostile entity named Nagemi roams this area, but it avoids the protective Gramophone Room where musical tones repel it.
- Critical Objective: Locate and ignite all pumpkins to unlock Nightmare Circus.
- Survival Tip: Memorize the layout and retreat paths to the Gramophone Room.
- Key 1: Enter the first right-hand chamber from the Gramophone area. Inspect beneath the bed, then use the key on Safe I near the corridor’s end.
- Key 2: Proceed down the right corridor; investigate under the sink. Safe II awaits upstairs within the Gramophone zone.
- Key 3: Search the room with a tilted metal table left of the Gramophone. Use the key on the adjacent Safe III.
- Final Step: Return to the Gramophone room and burn all collected pumpkins to progress.
Completing this phase earns players their first event Rune.
