Fortnitemares 2020 Challenges

Here’s a complete list of this year’s Fortnitemares challenges:

  • Become a shadow three times
  • Travel 100 meters on a Witch Broom
  • Eat 25 Candies
  • Deal damage with a possessed vehicle
  • Detect players as a shadow
  • Eliminate Shadow Midas
  • Eliminate Shadows as a player
  • Visit different Witch Shacks

In the first week of Fortnitemares, players can complete the first three challenges. Then, three more challenges release every three days after launch for a total of nine challenges. 

Here’s a Fortnitemares challenges guide, which we will update with walkthroughs at the release of new challenges. Remember, three challenges release every three days until there are a total of nine. 

Become a Shadow three times

The first challenge is to become a Shadow three times. Luckily, this is the simplest challenge on the list. Whenever you get eliminated, you’ll turn into a shadow and respawn on the Battle Bus. From there, you can drop into the match and get revenge on the player who took you out. You’ll need to do this three different times, which translates into dying three times.

You can also build a few ramps and jump off or throw yourself off a tall in-game structure. It doesn’t matter how you die, as you will always respawn as a shadow during the Fortnitemares event.

Travel 100 meters on a Witch Broom

Next up, you’ll need to locate a witch’s broom and travel a total of one hundred meters on it. There are a few locations around the map that contain a witch’s hut. Look for it, and you will be sure to find a broom nearby in a barrel. Check this map for a few example locations:

The legendary broom lets you fly around the map, similar to a glider or the silver surfer item. There is a short cooldown of around twenty seconds after landing the broom before activating it again. Try and launch yourself up as high as possible to glide the total one hundred meters in one fell swoop.

Eat 25 Candies

Trick-or-treating for candy is easy and one of the first three Fortnitemares challenges to complete. Look for candy sitting outside houses in jack-o-lanterns and pales. There are some areas at any named location, so there’s too many to list. Here are some candies you might come across:

  • Candy Corn
  • Jelly Bean
  • Taffy
  • Hop Drop
  • Pepper Ming

After finding some candy, use it to eat it and complete the challenge. You will need to eat twenty-five candies, so make sure to bring your appetite.
