To solve Release the Curse in Disney Dreamlight Valley’s Haunted Floating Festival, collect both Haunted Key Fragments, craft the Repaired Haunted Key, light four Unlit Jack-o’-Lanterns, and complete the Haunted Library sequence. Then activate the bedroom pillars in this order: Spider Web, Cat, Bat, Witch Hat. Pick up the Lost Magic Page and return it to the Grimoire to receive the Decorative Magic Seal.

Collect both Haunted Key Fragments

Follow the Ghostly Dreamlight Fox

Enter the Haunted House on the Haunted Floating Festival island and follow the Ghostly Dreamlight Fox through six locations. The reported route is:

  1. The back of the hallway, near the locked bedroom.
  2. The front of the hallway.
  3. The main entrance room, beside the sparkling book.
  4. The storage room, entered from the left side of the main room.
  5. Beside the crafting table in the main room.
  6. The back-left corner of the storage room, near a red chest.

Following the fox through this route awards the first Haunted Key Fragment. [Destructoid walkthrough]

Find the lantern candles

Use the Royal Pickaxe on the right-hand white lion statue in the hallway to get a Red Festival Key. Use that key to open a red chest containing lantern candles. The walkthrough also reports candles around the storage room and chests. Collect the candles and follow the event prompts to light four Unlit Jack-o’-Lanterns and obtain the second fragment. Chest and candle placements can differ after a game update, so use the on-screen event interactions if the reported locations do not match your game. [Destructoid walkthrough]

Lighting the lanterns also leads into the Haunted Library sequence, which is part of the progression to the bedroom puzzle. [Destructoid walkthrough] [Dreamlight Valley Wiki event guide]

Complete the Haunted Library sequence

The library task involves retrieving and returning books among the bedroom, front room, hallway, and storage room. Follow the event clues and prompts to move the books to their matching locations.

Set the bedroom pillars in the Release the Curse order

Activate the four bedroom pillars in this order:

  1. I: Spider Web
  2. II: Cat
  3. III: Bat
  4. IV: Witch Hat

This is the bedroom combination for Release the Curse. Do not use the outdoor Combination Pillar puzzle’s sequence here: that separate puzzle uses Spider Web, Bat, Witch Hat, Cat. [Dreamlight Valley Wiki event guide] [Destructoid walkthrough]

Why guides number the puzzles differently

The Haunted Floating Festival event reference labels Release the Curse as puzzle 6 and Haunted Library as puzzle 7. The walkthrough treats the library as a prerequisite within the larger Haunted Key and curse sequence. Thus, “Haunted Key Puzzle #6” may refer to the overall Release the Curse progression, including the library steps, rather than a single isolated interaction. The event reference records the puzzle as available from October 7, 2026; it does not establish a verified end date. [Dreamlight Valley Wiki event guide]
