Fortnite has long had the reputation for putting everyone and everything in the game as a collaboration.

From Godzilla to Sabrina Carpenter, it seems that nothing is off limits for Fortnite collabs.

That being said, Fortnite’s Halloween Fortnitemares 2025 event has turned that up to 11, adding a plethora of iconic pop culture characters.

Most of them are deeply associated with spooky season.

Which characters were part of Fortnite’s Fortnitemares reveal?

As teased on Twitter, Doja Cat headlines the Fortnitemares reveal, taking central stage as the ‘Mother of Thorns.’

Two Jam Tracks from Doja Cat’s new album, ‘Vie’, are coming to Fortnite:

• AAAHH MEN! – Doja Cat
• Gorgeous – Doja Cat

The album art features Doja Cat surrounded by roses, but as they say, ‘every rose has its thorn,’ and Doja is no exception.

Wednesday Addams is sure to be a big hit amongst Fortnite’s fans.

The sinister sister of the Addams Family is shown in the trailer performing part of the ‘Wednesday Dance’ from the Netflix Wednesday show.

Scooby Doo features, and Scooby is even shown enjoying his Scooby Snacks, which will be an item in the game.

But don’t worry, Scooby may be a scaredy cat on his own, but the Gang are all here to support him. Velma, Daphne, Fred, and Shaggy are all included, too.

Art the Clown of the Terrifier series is sure to be a terrifier on the server.

Friday the 13th killer, Jason Vorhees, will satisfy the older fans, among the more recent franchise antagonists.

The Grabber from Black Phone and Huggy Wuggy from Poppy Playtime also appear in the rogue gallery.

Ghostface from Scream rounds out the villains and is shown with his classic machete, taking a victim in the trailer.

The update also shows off a seasonal map called Nitemare Island, which will feature in Reload on October 10.
