Animal Hospital (Anomaly)
Animal Hospital (Anomaly) Halloween Event: End Time, Countdown
Animal Hospital (Anomaly), the night-shift horror role-play game from Animal Anomaly, is in the middle of its Halloween update. Halloween! went live Saturday, October 17 at 2:00 PM ET and runs all the way through Saturday, November 14 at 12:00 PM ET — a nearly month-long seasonal window that has already drawn more than 650,000 interested players. A shorter follow-up, Halloween Part 2, opens Tuesday, October 27 at 3:00 PM ET and closes on Halloween night.
The experience runs at real scale. It routinely holds about 31,000 concurrent players, has been visited about 2,500,000,000 times, and holds about 3,200,000 favorites, putting it among Roblox’s most-played experiences. The premise is simple: you work the night shift at an animal hospital and treat the patients — except some of them are behaving strangely.
Below is the current schedule, followed by a closer look at each event and answers to the questions players are asking. We update this page as the schedule changes. Last updated October 22.

Current and upcoming events
Halloween
Halloween! is the game’s current event and its marquee draw, running from Saturday, October 17 at 2:00 PM ET through Saturday, November 14 at 12:00 PM ET. That makes it an unusually long seasonal window — close to a month — rather than the short weekend drop the game has leaned on before. It’s billed as a content update, though the studio hasn’t spelled out everything it adds.
Interest leads the schedule by a wide margin, sitting at about 670,000 — many times the game’s live player count. There’s several weeks left before it closes; exact start and end times are in the schedule above.
Halloween Part 2
Halloween Part 2 is the next event on the calendar, scheduled to run from Tuesday, October 27 at 3:00 PM ET to Saturday, October 31 at 4:09 PM ET — a short, four-day burst timed to finish on Halloween itself. It arrives while the main Halloween update is still running, so the two overlap for its entire window. The developer has flagged it as new seasonal content but hasn’t said more about what it includes.
Early interest is strong for a secondary event: sign-ups stand at about 190,000, a fraction of the headline Halloween update’s turnout but a solid showing for a four-day drop. We’ll fill in the details once the developer says what it brings.
