When Does the Halloween Event Start in Overwatch?

When does the Halloween event start in Overwatch? October is fast approaching, and players want their fill of spooky skins, Dr. Junkenstein robot murder and all the other fun these events have to offer. Here’s what we know about the event’s start date so far.
even though I have way too many other games to play I'm looking forward to the only good Overwatch event starting soon (okay, Archives is good too, but Halloween Terror was the *original* good one)

When Does the Halloween Event Start in Overwatch?
Overwatch is currently in the midst of the Bastion’s Brick Challenge mini event. In this event, players can earn special Lego- and Bastion-themed cosmetics for watching select streamers and winning games. Bastion’s Brick Challenge is scheduled to last until Sept. 30, the day before the start of October.
Though Blizzard has not yet announced a start date for this year’s Halloween Terror, past years’ editions have consistently started on the second Tuesday of October. If that trend holds true, Halloween Terror 2019 will kick off Oct. 8.
