Fortnitemares Leaks: Wednesday and Beetlejuice Skins Revealed
Fortnite’s next big update brings iconic spooky characters to the battle royale. Here is your first look at the leaked Wednesday and Beetlejuice skins.
The Spooky Season is Coming to the Island
October is just around the corner, and Fortnite fans know exactly what that means. Fortnitemares is on the horizon. Every year, Epic Games transforms its colorful battle royale into a digital haunted house. This year, the hype train is already leaving the station. The leaks are flowing, and they are massive.
Industry insiders and dataminers just cracked open the files for the upcoming v36.10 patch. What they found points to a double-feature of classic spooky icons. It looks like Wednesday Addams and Beetlejuice are officially on their way to the loop.
Wednesday Addams Makes Her Grim Debut
Let’s look at Wednesday first. The Netflix series turned the character into a global phenomenon all over again, making her a perfect fit for the game. According to the leaks, her character model captures that signature, unblinking glare perfectly. She wears her classic dark school uniform, looking completely unimpressed by the colorful chaos around her.
But the real draw is her reactivity. Rumors suggest that “Thing,” the famous severed hand, will act as a reactive element. Get an elimination, and Thing might scurry up her shoulder or tap out a victory beat. Her back bling is rumored to be her beloved cello, and yes, there is almost certainly an emote featuring her famous gothic dance. It is the kind of crossover that will dominate the lobby before matches start.
Beetlejuice Brings Chaotic Energy
Then we have the ghost with the most. Beetlejuice is also headed to the shop, capitalizing on his recent return to the big screen. The leaked designs show him in his famous black-and-white striped suit, complete with moldy green hair and rotten teeth.
His reactive features sound incredibly chaotic. Dataminers hint that his head might spin a full 360 degrees when you take damage, or his eyes could pop out of his skull when you open a chest. It is a loud, cartoonish style that contrasts sharply with Wednesday’s quiet, gothic vibe. Together, they make a perfect pairing for the Halloween season.
What Else to Expect in Update v36.10
These skins will not come cheap. Players should expect them to land in the Item Shop as individual purchases or deluxe bundles, likely costing between 1,500 and 2,200 V-Bucks.
Beyond the cosmetics, the v36.10 update will bring actual gameplay changes. Fortnitemares always alters the map. We will likely see thick fog rolling over the island, creepy decorations at major points of interest, and the return of spooky weapons like the Pumpkin Launcher. The fan-favorite Horde Rush mode is also rumored to return, letting squads fight off waves of monsters for free rewards.
Epic Games has not announced an official release date for the update, but the community expects it to drop in mid-October. Get your V-Bucks ready.
