GTA Online Ghosts Exposed is the brand new seasonal collectible that debuted in Los Santos as part of the summer DLC, San Andreas Mercenaries. Players can find ghosts looming in 10 different locations, take a picture of them via their in-game smartphones, and earn $15,000 from each photograph. The final one will even give $50,000 extra cash for completing the event.

Photographing all ghosts in a day will also unlock the Ghosts Exposed livery for the new Albany Brigham vehicle. It’s interesting, fun, and refreshing to see such offerings in the latest GTA Online Halloween 2023 event.


2) Possessed Animals

GTA Online Phantom Car is also one of the returning random events that debuted in 2021 as part of the Los Santos Tuners update. During this Halloween 2023 event, players can find a special Tornado Custom vehicle in the freemode driven by an invisible NPC. This unique-looking ride only spawns between 9 pm to 5 am, and instantly becomes aggressive as soon as players are on foot. It will attempt to ram and eliminate them.

The only way to defeat the Phantom Car is to either escape it or destroy it using explosive weapons like Grenade or Rocket Launcher.


5) Cerberus Surprise

The Exotic Exports Cerberus Surprise is also one of the returning random events currently available after the latest GTA Online Halloween 2023 update. A driverless modified variant of the Apocalypse Cerberus truck hunts down players in one of the 12 possible Exotic Export Vehicle locations. As soon as one enters it, the driverless truck starts up and begins to ram them to death.

The chase will last for five minutes, after which the Apocalypse Cerberus truck will break down. The event can also be ended earlier if players die or complete the delivery.


Participating in all of the above-mentioned Halloween-themed game events is the perfect way to celebrate the spooky month while waiting for Grand Theft Auto 6.
