### The 10 best new Halloween slots of 2026

#### 1. Big Bass Halloween Splash 1000 (Pragmatic Play)

Pragmatic Play’s newest fishing slot went live on October 12. It has a 5x3 grid, 10 paylines, medium volatility, a 96.50% RTP and a 20,000x maximum win. It is the fourth Halloween edition of the Big Bass series and runs on the Big Bass Splash 1000 engine.

Three, four or five scatters trigger 10, 15 or 20 free spins. Before the round begins, you pick from six pumpkins that can unlock up to five modifiers: extra wilds, extra money symbols, more spins, a head start on the multiplier ladder, or a better chance of random features. Fisherman wilds collect fish values of up to 1,000x. Every fourth fisherman adds 10 spins and pushes the multiplier to 2x, then 3x, then 10x.

**Why it made the list:** It’s the most approachable pick here, with familiar mechanics, medium volatility and a pumpkin pick that gives you some say in how the bonus starts. Casinos can also run lower-RTP versions at 95.50% and 94.50%, so check the game’s info screen before you spin.

#### 2. Carnival of Freaks (DEGEN Studios)

This freak-show slot plays on a 5x6 grid with 50 lines and tops out at 20,000x, the highest ceiling of the October 22 releases. Body Bags burst open to reveal symbols, wild posters or Freak Coins worth up to 5,000x, and Tips Buckets collect the coin values on screen.

Three, four or five scatters unlock one of three free spins modes:

- Cheap Thrills: 8 spins.
- Main Attraction: 10 spins.
- Full Freak Mode: 12 spins, with the Global Multiplier starting at 4x.

Cannons open new coin spaces and Mallets add 1x to the multiplier. The Bloodbath feature fills the whole grid before the multiplier is applied.

**Why it made the list:** It’s the most feature-packed release of the month. Bonus buys are available, including a Tempt Fate option that awards either a random free spins round or Bloodbath. They cost far more than a normal spin, so test them in demo mode first.

#### 3. Epic SixSixSix (Hacksaw Gaming)

Hacksaw’s original SixSixSix arrived in July 2024 with a 96.15% RTP and a 16,666x ceiling. The new Epic SixSixSix keeps the Wicked Wheels, adds three bonus games and raises the top prize to 20,666x. It went live at a handful of casinos first.

**Why it made the list:** It has the highest advertised max win in this roundup. The original was a high-volatility game, so if the sequel follows suit, expect long quiet stretches between big hits.

#### 4. Vampires: Blood Moon (Booming Games)

Set outside a gothic castle, this 5x4 slot has 30 fixed paylines, a 32.29% hit rate and a 15,000x max win. Two coffins drive the features:

- **Ruby coffin:** stores moon symbols until a Vampire Collect symbol lands on reel 5 and cashes them in.
- **Emerald coffin:** collects scatters and unlocks 15 Evolving Free Spins.

During the bonus, winning low card symbols are removed for good. Winning high symbols turn gold and pay double. Every wild that lands is saved for one final Blood Moon Spin.

**Why it made the list:** The free spins get stronger the longer they run, and the hit rate is relatively high for a game with a 15,000x ceiling. A bonus buy is also available.

#### 5. Grog To Hell Hold & Win (Elysium Studios)

Set aboard a haunted galleon, this five-reel, 20-payline slot pays up to 13,842x. Captain symbols fill a meter that triggers Hold & Win, which gives you three respins that reset with every new symbol. A captain can also clone himself to set the feature off instantly.

Collect enough key scatters and you get a cannon battle against an approaching fleet. Each hit awards a multiplier and refills your ammunition, and the cannon gets stronger at 8, 13 and 20 hits.

**Why it made the list:** The cannon battle plays more like a mini-game than a standard bonus round. It’s one of the more original features of the season.

#### 6. Demon Beats (NetEnt)

NetEnt went back to its long-running Avalanche cascade engine here and added colossal symbols and climbing multipliers. The game opened in early access on October 8 and went wide on October 15. It follows a four-piece rock band fighting evil. It has a 96.08% RTP, high volatility, a bonus buy and a 10,000x maximum win.

**Why it made the list:** It isn’t a pumpkins-and-witches slot, but demon-hunting rockers fit the season. Avalanche is also one of NetEnt’s most familiar mechanics.

#### 7. Wheel of Horrors (Iron Dog Studio)

Slot Catalog ranks this as the top new slot of the week. It’s a 25-line game where a Monster Coin can spin a wheel above the reels for one of three prizes:

- Hold & Win.
- A cash prize of 5x to 500x.
- A jackpot prize of 15x to 5,000x.

Hold & Win starts with three respins that reset each time a coin lands.

**Why it made the list:** It’s quick and easy to follow, which makes it a good choice if you prefer classic Hold & Win to cascading grids.

#### 8. Witchcraft Riches (BGaming)

This is the first game in BGaming’s five-game Halloween lineup, built with GammaPlay Studios. It’s a high-volatility slot with cascading wins, multipliers and free spins. It launched on October 5 with a 96.68% RTP and a 5,000x max win.

**Why it made the list:** It has the highest published RTP in our top 10.

#### 9. Soul Fiesta (ELA Games)

Soul Fiesta swaps Halloween for the Day of the Dead, which is celebrated on November 1 and 2. You ride a spirit train between the land of the living and the afterlife, with phantom carriages in place of reels. The Hold & Win round unlocks hidden rows on the way to the Golden Train. Volatility is high, the top win is 5,000x, and the game comes in two RTP versions: 94.03% and 95.99%.

**Why it made the list:** It’s a seasonal pick that stays relevant after October 31. Check which version your casino runs, because the two RTP settings are almost two percentage points apart.

#### 10. Halloween Golden Winner Grand Chance (Inspired)

Inspired’s seasonal version of Golden Winner Grand Chance starts at 10p a spin. Its main features:

- The Grand Chance pumpkin can reveal a prize pot worth up to 250x the stake.
- Three or more Bonus symbols trigger free spins, where golden bells build a multiplier trail.
- Bonus symbols that don’t win can feed a pseudo-progressive bonus.

**Why it made the list:** It’s the low-key option for smaller budgets and shorter sessions.

### More October horror slots on Slotyi

Red Tiger’s [Ouija](https://slotyi.com/slot/ouija) (95.08% RTP, medium volatility) and Revolver Gaming’s [Asylum Files](https://slotyi.com/slot/asylum-files) (96.2% RTP, high volatility) both landed in October. Hacksaw’s [Hellmageddon](https://slotyi.com/slot/hellmageddon) is already listed ahead of its December 2026 release. Browse the full collection in our [Horror Slots](https://slotyi.com/slots/theme/horror) category, or see every new release on our [New Slots](https://slotyi.com/slots/new-slots) page.

### How to choose the right Halloween slot

Start with the RTP version, not the theme. Several of these games come in more than one RTP setting, including Big Bass Halloween Splash 1000 and Soul Fiesta. The figure your casino runs is shown in the game’s info or paytable screen.

Next, match volatility to your budget. High-volatility games like Demon Beats, Witchcraft Riches and Soul Fiesta can go a long time without a meaningful win. A medium-volatility game like Big Bass Halloween Splash 1000 pays smaller amounts more often.

Treat max win as a ceiling, not a target, because these figures are extremely rare by design. Bonus buys cost many times your base stake, so a session ends much faster if the feature doesn’t pay.

The easiest way to find out whether you like a game is to play it in demo mode first. Our [High Volatility Slots](https://slotyi.com/slots/high-volatility-slots) and [High RTP Slots](https://slotyi.com/slots/high-rtp-slots) pages are good next stops.
