Scary Shawarma: How to Complete The Hollow Quest

The Hollow is an optional event inside a regular night shift in Scary Shawarma, the Roblox horror kiosk game. You don’t need any items to start it. A vote prompt appears once the opening tutorial is done. If you vote yes, a tear rips open in the kitchen wall, and the only way to shut it is to keep cooking.

Quick answer: Finish the opening tutorial, vote YES on “THE HOLLOW” prompt, then keep serving. Each crossover guest you serve fills one stage of the 7-stage Breach Progress bar.

How to complete the Hollow quest in Scary Shawarma

Starting The Hollow event from the night shift

The event vote only appears after the kiosk is up and running, so the tutorial tasks come first. You can’t skip ahead to the vote. Press Q any time you need to free the mouse cursor, and press E to interact with highlighted objects.

Proceed along the dark street beyond the storefront to the alley entrance behind the shawarma kiosk. The shift’s income counter begins at 0.

Open the back door and step into the kitchen. The welcome tutorial pops up with a “SKIP THE TUTORIAL” button. Follow the prompts instead so the grill, window, and rules are all handled.

Optionally, check the Strazh Tek CCTV monitor and the Customer Logbook on the chair. The logbook tracks Anomaly and Client counts, which start at 0/63 and 0/53.

E interaction prompt on the CCTV camera next to the television while the Turn on Grill task is active — The CCTV camera beside the television can be checked with E during the grill task.

Flip the red grill switch on the wall next to the microwave. This clears the “Turn on Grill” objective.

Pull open the window blinds facing the street to complete “Open the Kiosk.” Customers can now reach you.

Open the Kiosk tutorial prompt with the storefront window ahead — The “Open the Kiosk” objective, completed by raising the window blinds.

Read the rules sheet and the guidelines poster on the wall to clear “Read the Rules.” These rules still apply during the event, so they’re worth a look.

E prompt highlighted on the safety rules sheet during the Read the Rules task — Press E on the rules sheet to read it.

Wait for the “THE HOLLOW” pop-up asking “PLAY THE HOLLOW EVENT?” and vote YES. Once voting closes, the screen shows the final tally and “THE HOLLOW WILL BEGIN.”

Tutorial message saying they're already on their way as customers approach the kiosk — The tutorial wraps up as the first customers head for the window.

It’s a group vote, so every player on the server gets a say. Voting NO skips the event for that round.

How the breach opens in the kitchen

Nothing happens right away. Keep taking orders, and a chain of warnings appears on screen while you cook. The first customer, a man in a dirty shirt who wants a soft shawarma, is served while it plays out. The messages arrive in this order:

“THE HOLLOW HAS NOTICED YOU”
“SOMETHING IS MOVING INSIDE THE WALLS”
“THE WALL IS BEGINNING TO CRACK”
“THE WORLDS ARE COLLIDING”
“SOMETHING IS COMING THROUGH”
“THE BREACH IS FULLY OPEN”

After the last message, a black-and-red glowing tear opens in the kitchen wall. A bar labelled “THE HOLLOW • BREACH PROGRESS” appears at the top of the screen and counts up to 7. That bar is your quest tracker for the rest of the event.

Kitchen counter with the phone's numeric keypad open at the lower left — The kitchen during the first order, with the phone keypad open on the counter.

If the meat runs out mid-shift, the game shows “Meat refilled. You can continue” once it’s topped up.

Making a shawarma for Hollow guests

Every Hollow guest is served through the same prep routine as regular customers. On-screen prompts walk you through each stage, and green arrows and white outlines mark the next ingredient or surface.

Pick up a Lavash from the counter. The prompt reads “Start with Lavash.”

Set the lavash on the wooden cutting board when “Place Lavash on the board” appears.

Cutting board highlighted with an E prompt under the Place Lavash on the board task — The cutting board lights up for the “Place Lavash on the board” step.

Lift white sauce out of the ingredient tray, then set it onto the lavash (“Add Sauce”).

Add the grated cheese on top of the sauce (“Add Cheese”).

Add Cheese prompt shown above the counter while a wrap is being built — The “Add Cheese” step on the prep counter.

Take the salad from its tray with E and lay it on the wrap (“Add Salad”).

Salad station with the Add Salad task active and an E Take prompt on the salad tray — Use E Take at the salad station for the “Add Salad” step.

Grab shaved meat from the rotating spit and add it (“Add Meat”).

Use the “Roll the shawarma” prompt to wrap it up.

Hand the roll to the customer at the window (“Give it to the customer”), plus a drink if the order calls for one.

If an order needs a drink and you hand over only the wrap, the game flags it with “You forgot the soda.”

Hollow guests and Breach Progress

Once the breach is open, regular customers keep coming, but crossover characters from other Roblox games show up between them. Serving a crossover guest moves the bar forward by one stage. Serving a regular customer doesn’t change it.

Guest	Order	Progress after serving	Message
Animal Hospital rabbit	Shawarma + Brepsi soda	1 / 7	“THE BREACH IS BECOMING UNSTABLE”
Seek (DOORS)	Standard shawarma	2 / 7	“THE CRACK IS BEGINNING TO SHRINK”
Piggy (Piggy)	Shawarma	3 / 7	“THE HOLLOW IS LOSING ITS GRIP”

Animal Hospital rabbit. A cream-and-brown spotted rabbit creature comes to the window and shows a mouthful of sharp teeth when it pays. It wants a shawarma and a can of Brepsi from the refrigerator. Both items have to be handed over for the bar to reach 1/7.

Rabbit creature peering through the kiosk window past the prep counter and cutting board — The Animal Hospital rabbit at the window, the first Hollow guest.

Regular customers still turn up between guests. A man in a white suit, for example, asks for an ungrilled shawarma without onions, so read each order before you start building.

Phone keypad open on the counter as a customer in a white suit walks up to the window — A regular customer in a white suit arriving between Hollow guests.

Seek. The tall black figure with one white eye from DOORS orders a standard shawarma and leaves once it’s served. That pushes the bar to 2/7.

Add Salad prompt active with the E Take interaction aimed at the salad tray — Building Seek’s standard shawarma at the salad tray.

A regular woman in green comes next and gets a normal shawarma, with no change to the bar.

Lavash being set on the cutting board under the Place Lavash on the board prompt — Starting a regular order with the lavash on the board.

Piggy. The pig from Piggy, with its single glowing red eye and dress, shows up at the window and gets a shawarma. Serving it moves the bar to 3/7.

Dialogue line asking Is that the real Piggy as the pig character stands at the window — Piggy at the order window, the third Hollow guest.

The shift’s own client objective keeps running alongside the breach bar, so the event doesn’t pause your normal quota.

Serve 28 clients objective shown while facing the rotating shawarma spit — The “Serve 28 clients” objective stays active during The Hollow.

Each completed order adds to your income, in increments of +150 or +200. Expect the counter to climb steadily through the 4,000s while you work toward later stages.

Income counter at 4,500 with the Press Q to unlock mouse prompt beside a storefront — Income keeps climbing with every order served during the event.

Shift rules that still apply during The Hollow

The safety rules don’t switch off when the breach opens. On paper, the rules say not to serve anomalous customers. The Hollow’s crossover guests are the exception, because serving them is exactly what advances the bar. Every other rule stands:

Serve normal customers. Closing the window on them counts as a mistake.
Each mistake summons the Inspector, and too many mistakes and he’ll “fix” you.
If a smiling customer comes in, hand him a soda.
Serve a faceless man, but never look directly at his face.
Check anomalous customers through the cameras before opening the door.

Wall-mounted CCTV monitor in the kitchen with purple hexagonal markers and the side menu buttons — The kitchen CCTV monitor, used to check customers before opening up.

You can tell the quest is moving when the Breach Progress bar ticks up and a new line appears after each crossover guest. The messages track the tear shrinking, going from “BECOMING UNSTABLE” to “BEGINNING TO SHRINK” to “LOSING ITS GRIP.” The bar needs all seven stages filled to close the breach, so keep the window open and keep the grill running until it does.
