Enter if you dare.

The 2024 Brawl-O-Ween season has officially begun, adding a spooktacular twist to the fighting grounds. You’ll notice several new features on the game’s home page, including a peculiar ‘Do Not Enter’ section.

If you’re curious about this conundrum, we’re here to explain what the ‘Do Not Enter’ and ‘Don’t Tap’ pages are in Brawl Stars.

Brawl Stars ‘Do Not Enter’ and ‘Don’t Tap’ pages, explained

Those brave enough to tap Brawl Stars’ Do Not Enter tab will end up on a page with a mysterious book. If you hit it enough times, it will result in a Mortis jumpscare to give you a little fright. The first few taps produce a few monster hands, with various sayings like: “The End is Near” and “Server Overload.” You’ll eventually trigger the jumpscare, but sometimes, you can get a glimpse of a secret area.

I’ve briefly triggered an image of a room after tapping for the Mortis jumpscares several times. Other players have noticed these snippets, too, possibly hinting at a new area or Halloween-themed skin. There seem to be at least three variations of this room, including one with a cash register, stairs, or quill.

Players on Reddit have tried to decipher the mystery, coupling one of the artworks to a new Barley skin. However, others believe it could be the latest environment for Brawl-O-Ween, giving us another stage to utilize. I’m curious about the ‘599’ price on the register, which could also have another hidden meaning. Of course, we’ll have to wait and see if these theories turn out to be true, and we may get an answer soon as Halloween approaches.

The only confirmed feature of the season is the Dead Box, a reward system similar to the Mega Box’s. These crates hold various items, such as non-exclusive Brawl-O-Ween skins, themed pins, coins, bling, gems, and Brawlers. They’ll only be available while the Dead Game event is active, concluding on Oct. 31. Hopefully, we’ll get some answers about the images from the ‘Don’t Tap’ book by then to solve this anomalous mystery.
