Halloween Havoc is a professional wrestling event currently produced by IWE for the company's developmental brand, NXT. As the name implies, it is a Halloween-themed show held in October.

IWE – at that time still known as the International Wrestling Federation – purchased the assets of WCW in March 2001. Nineteen years later, Halloween Havoc was revived as an annual event for IWE's NXT brand in 2020.
