There are tons of fun collaborations in this year’s Fortnitemares event. Most of the collabs are themed around general spookiness, such as horror franchises, demons, creepy characters, etc. Let’s take a look at the collabs currently part of Fortnitemares, as well as the ones that will be joining the fun at some point during the event period. 

K-Pop Demon Hunters

The K-Pop Demon Hunters collaboration released the week before the official Fortnitemares event began, but we’re still including it in our list since the collab is relevant to the spookiness of the Halloween season. The game mode and its cosmetics are also still doing well and attracting plenty of players. This collaboration includes skins for the three main heroines of K-Pop Demon Hunters, Rumi, Mira, and Zoey.

The Horde Rush game mode also got a K-Pop Demon Hunters-themed reskin called Demon Rush. As well as this, four unique items themed around the film and the characters were released with the collab, with each of the three girls getting their own item. These items are no longer available in the Battle Royale modes, but they can still be found in Demon Rush. 

Tron Ares

A Tron Ares collab was also released the week before Fortnitemares 2025, so it’s still part of the general list of collabs for the Halloween season. This is a pretty basic, mostly cosmetics-only collab. It includes a skin for Jared Leto’s Ares from the latest Tron film as well as a pickaxe, two emotes, a glider, a weapon wrap, a back bling, and a glider. The only other item included is a Jam Track of the song As Alive As You Need Me To Be by Nine Inch Nails from the film’s soundtrack. 

Doja Cat

The latest music star to get a Fortnite collab is Doja Cat, who plays a significant part in Fortnitemares. Doja Cat takes on the role of the Mother of Thorns, a villainous NPC whom players can battle. When she has been defeated, she will drop a weapon called Thorn Ripper, a reskin of the Chain of Hades melee weapon. 

Doja Cat also has various cosmetics available that can be purchased for V-Bucks. The Doja Cat bundle includes the following:

  • Doja Cat skin
  • Doja Cat Lego skin
  • Mother of Thorns Doja Cat skin 
  • Mother of Thorns Doja Cat Lego skin
  • Doja’s Claw Swords pickaxe
  • Agora Hills emote
  • Woman emote

  • Fallen Petals weapon wrap
  • Mother’s Mic microphone
  • Mirrored Mother loading screen
  • AAAHHH MEN! Jam Track

These items can be bought within the bundle for 3,200 V-Bucks, but each item can also be bought individually for a cheaper price. 

Scooby-Doo

The five main characters from Scooby-Doo are now in Fortnite with Fortnitemares 2025. Not only are Scooby, Shaggy, Daphne, Fred and Velma going to be available as skins (they haven’t been released at the time of writing), but they can also be found in the Battle Royale game modes. Players can find them scattered around the map. Once found, interact with them to help them with quests. However, the only member of the Scooby gang that can be recruited as a follower is Scooby-Doo himself.  

Jason Voorhees from the Friday the 13th franchise

The creepy killer Jason Voorhees will be purchasable as a skin during Fortnitemares (from October 17). However, players can fight him right now by heading to Creepy Camps when playing Battle Royale. His location is marked with a skull. Jason drops a Mythic weapon upon defeat, and he can also unlock a boon for the whole party if you are playing with a group. 

Ghostface from the Scream franchise

Much like Jason Voorhees, Ghostface is another popular horror villain who is stepping into the world of Fortnite to cause some chaos this spooky season. His skin drops today (October 10), and Ghostface also has a Mythic item in Fortnitemares, but more on that later. 

Huggy Wuggy from Poppy Playtime franchise

The blue fluffy monster Huggy Wuggy is also heading into Fornitemares as a skin, though there is no confirmation as to when this will be or if other cosmetics will be included. However, we do know there will be a loading screen themed on Poppy Playtime, the game series that Huggy Wuggy comes from. A clip from the Fortnitemares 2025 gameplay trailer showed Huggy Wuggy riding around on a chainsaw, and the creepiness of the model design fits in well with the spooky redesign of the Battle Royale islands.

Art the Clown from Terrifier

Art the Clown, from the 2016 slasher film Terrifier, has become a popular Halloween icon in the last few years, so it’s no surprise that he will be receiving a skin in Fortnite. According to Fortnite.gg, this collab will also include a back bling cosmetic, a spray, a weapon wrap and an emote that involves honking a horn before breaking into a sprint while wielding a hacksaw. Those are the kinds of cosmetics we can get behind this Halloween.  

The Grabber from The Black Phone

The Grabber is another relatively recent horror villain who has become iconic thanks to his creepy aesthetic. He’s also getting a Fortnite skin, but there aren’t any details as to when this will be released in the game or if other cosmetics will accompany it. 

The Semibots from R.E.P.O.

The adorably goofy Semibots from the indie horror game R.E.P.O. went viral at the beginning of 2025, and they’ll now be coming to Fortnite as skins. We got a glimpse of the skins in the gameplay trailer, and they look awesome, even if the long legs are a little awkward when you first see them. 

Wednesday Adams from Wednesday
