Halloween Game Chapter 2 Main Street Collectibles

There are 25 collectibles to find on Main Street in Chapter 2 of the 2022 Halloween game (Halloween: The Game). This includes 24 Halloween masks and one key item that unlocks a bonus area. This guide lists every collectible’s exact location, explains what each one does, and clears up the common confusion between Main Street and the neighboring Maple Lane.

Background: What Is Halloween: The Game?

Halloween: The Game is a multiplayer survival horror title released in 2022, based on the classic 1978 John Carpenter film. Players take on the roles of teenagers trying to complete objectives across a small Illinois town while Michael Myers stalks them. The game features several maps, and Main Street is the second chapter’s primary environment. Unlike the first chapter’s street map, Main Street introduces indoor locations like the hardware store and the diner, which hide many of the collectibles.

Collectibles in this game serve two purposes: they unlock cosmetic items (like masks for your survivor character) and they contribute to the game’s achievement/trophy system. Finding all 25 on Main Street is required for the “Mask Collector” achievement. The game’s developer, IllFonic, designed these to be hidden in plain sight, often requiring you to interact with objects that look like part of the environment.

How the Collectible System Works

Each collectible is a small glowing mask or a key item that appears only when you are in a match on Main Street. They are not present in the lobby or in custom game setups where the map is modified. Here’s what you need to know:

• Masks: These are the standard collectibles. They appear as small, white Halloween masks (similar to the one Michael wears) placed on shelves, tables, or in corners. Interacting with them (pressing the use key) collects them.
• The Key: The 25th collectible is a brass key that unlocks the basement of the hardware store. This basement contains an additional lore item and a special exit that survivors can use.
• Persistence: Collectibles are saved per-account, not per-match. Once you collect one, it stays collected. You can re-collect them in future matches, but they won’t count again. You can track your progress in the main menu under “Collections.”
• Visibility: Collectibles are only visible to the survivor team. The killer (Michael) cannot see them, so you can safely collect them while he is chasing other players, but you are vulnerable.

All 25 Collectible Locations on Main Street

The map is divided into three main zones: the North Side (near the church), the Central Plaza (with the diner and hardware store), and the South Side (near the auto shop). Here are the locations, grouped by zone.

North Side (8 collectibles)

• 1. Church pew: On the first pew on the left as you enter the church, near the altar.
• 2. Church confessional: Inside the confessional booth on the right side, on the seat.
• 3. Graveyard bench: Behind the church, on the bench next to the graveyard entrance.
• 4. Graveyard tombstone: On top of the largest tombstone near the back fence.
• 5. Gas station shelf: Inside the gas station, on the middle shelf behind the counter.
• 6. Gas station restroom: On the sink in the restroom (the door is sometimes locked; wait for it to open).
• 7. Alley dumpster: In the alley between the church and gas station, on the lid of the dumpster.
• 8. Fence post: On the fence post near the north exit gate.

Central Plaza (10 collectibles)

• 9. Diner counter: On the counter near the cash register.
• 10. Diner booth: On the table in the booth farthest from the door.
• 11. Diner kitchen: On the shelf in the kitchen, next to the stove.
• 12. Hardware store front desk: On the desk near the entrance.
• 13. Hardware store tool aisle: On the shelf in the tool aisle (second shelf from the bottom).
• 14. Hardware store paint section: On the paint can display near the back wall.
• 15. Hardware store basement (key item): The key is on the desk in the back office of the hardware store. This is the 25th collectible and is required to open the basement door.
• 16. Plaza fountain: On the edge of the fountain in the center of the plaza.
• 17. Plaza bench: On the bench near the diner entrance.

South Side (7 collectibles)

• 23. Bus stop bench: On the bench at the bus stop.
• 24. Trash can: On the lid of the trash can behind the auto shop.
• 25. South exit gate: On the gate frame near the south exit.

How to Use the Key (Basement Unlock)

Once you collect the key from the hardware store office, you can unlock the basement door located in the back of the hardware store, near the paint section. The door has a small keyhole. Interact with it to unlock. Inside the basement, you will find:

• A lore document that explains the origin of the masks (this is a separate achievement).
• A shortcut exit that leads to the alley behind the store, which can help you escape Michael.
• No additional collectibles, but the lore document is worth reading.

Note: The key is a one-time use per match. If you die before using it, you lose it. If you collect it and then die, you will need to re-collect it in a future match if you haven’t already unlocked the achievement.

Common Problems and Misconceptions

Players often struggle with a few specific issues:

• “I collected all 24 masks but the achievement didn’t pop.” You likely missed the key. The key counts as a collectible, and the achievement requires all 25. Check your collection menu to see which one is missing.
• “Some collectibles are not spawning.” If you are playing in a private match with bots, some collectibles may not spawn. Play a public match or a custom match with at least one other human player.
• “The gas station restroom door is locked.” The restroom door is on a timer. It opens after a few minutes into the match, or when a generator is activated. Wait or come back later.
• “I can’t find the key.” The key is small and easy to miss. It’s on the desk in the back office, which is behind the counter. You need to jump over the counter or go through the side door. The office door is sometimes locked; use a lockpick if you have one, or wait for another player to open it.
• “Maple Lane vs. Main Street:” Many guides online mix up the two. Maple Lane is the first chapter’s map, which has 20 collectibles. Main Street is the second chapter’s map, with 25. Make sure you are on the correct map.

Tips for Collecting Efficiently

Collecting all 25 in one match is possible but risky. Here’s how to do it safely:

• Play as a survivor with the “Stealth” perk (if available) to reduce your noise radius.
• Stick to the edges of the map when Michael is nearby. Most collectibles are near walls or in corners.
• Prioritize the key early because the basement unlock can give you a quick escape route.
• Communicate with your team if you are playing with friends. Have one player distract Michael while others collect.
• Use the pause menu to check your collection progress during a match. It shows which ones you’ve already collected, so you don’t waste time.
• Don’t forget the church and gas station – they are often overlooked because players focus on the plaza.

Why Collectibles Matter

Beyond the achievement, collecting all 25 on Main Street unlocks the “Michael’s Mask” cosmetic for your survivor character. This is a purely cosmetic item that changes your character’s appearance to look like a miniature Michael Myers. It does not affect gameplay, but it’s a status symbol among players. Additionally, the lore document in the basement adds depth to the game’s story, explaining why the masks appear throughout the town.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to collect all 25 in one match?

No. The game saves your progress per account. You can collect a few each match, and they will stay collected. The achievement will unlock once you have all 25, even if it took multiple matches.

Can Michael destroy or remove the collectibles?

No. Michael cannot interact with the collectibles. They are only visible to survivors. However, if you are killed while holding the key, the key disappears and you must re-collect it in a future match (if you haven’t already unlocked the achievement).

What is the difference between Main Street and Maple Lane?

Maple Lane is the first chapter’s map, set in a residential neighborhood. It has 20 collectibles. Main Street is the second chapter’s map, set in the town center with shops and a church. It has 25 collectibles. They are separate maps with separate collection progress.

Is there a video guide I can follow?

Yes, many players have uploaded video guides on YouTube. Search for “Halloween the Game Main Street collectibles guide” and you’ll find several. However, be aware that some videos may be outdated if the game has been updated. The locations listed in this article are based on the current version of the game.

What happens if I collect the key but don’t open the basement?

You can still collect the key and it will count toward your progress. The key is a collectible itself, so you don’t need to open the basement to get credit. However, opening the basement gives you access to the lore document and the shortcut exit.

Can I collect the key as the killer?

No. The killer (Michael) cannot see or interact with any collectibles. You must play as a survivor to collect them.
