Work at a Pizza Place Maze of Terror: Schedule, Times & Next Countdown

The Maze of Terror is the Halloween centerpiece inside Work at a Pizza Place, Dued1’s long-running Roblox mainstay that has pulled in more than five billion visits and over thirteen million favorites. Each year the pizza shop sprouts a sprawling haunted maze, and players who find their way through it walk away with that season’s exclusive Halloween trophy. Right now about about 4,700 people are in the game.
This is a seasonal fixture rather than a one-off. The maze returns on a regular rhythm, so missing it one week never means missing it for good. The next opening is set for Tuesday, October 27 at 3 PM ET, and the countdown to it, along with the usual windows, sits on the card below.

How often the Maze of Terror runs
The Maze of Terror comes back about once a year, landing around Halloween — it reopens about every ~373 days, and it has run 2 times so far. While it is live, the maze opens on two fixed time-of-day windows rather than a single start time. That spread is deliberate: one start time would always fall in the small hours for half the planet, so two slots give players in the Americas, Europe, Asia and Oceania a window they can actually reach.
Both windows run in Eastern Time. Here is how they land across the major regions:
| Window (ET) | UK | Central Europe | India | Japan | E. Australia |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tuesday, 3:00 PM | 7:00 PM | 8:00 PM | 12:30 AM (Wed) | 4:00 AM (Wed) | 6:00 AM (Wed) |
| Sunday, 10:00 AM | 2:00 PM | 3:00 PM | 7:30 PM | 11:00 PM | 1:00 AM (Mon) |
What happens in the Maze of Terror
The goal is simple to state and trickier to finish: work your way from the entrance to the far end of the haunted maze. Clear it and you claim the season’s limited reward.
- Navigate the full maze layout, from the opening to the exit.
- Reach the finish to earn the 2026 Halloween Trophy.
- The trophy is tied to this year’s run, so it is the collectible on offer during the current maze.
Tips for catching it
- The Sunday 10:00 AM ET window is daytime across Europe and a convenient evening in India; the Tuesday 3:00 PM ET window suits after-school hours in the Americas.
- Set a reminder for whichever slot fits your schedule — the maze can take a while to clear, so leave yourself time.
- Miss both windows? The event returns on its next cycle, so there is always another chance down the line.
How it fits the game’s rhythm
