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.

It was originally produced as an annual pay-per-view (PPV) by World Championship Wrestling (WCW) from 1989 until 2000. The first two events were held when WCW was still affiliated with the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) before WCW split from the NWA in January 1991. The final five events under WCW (1996–2000) were held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in the Las Vegas suburb of Paradise, Nevada.

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. In 2020 and 2021, it was held as a television special of the NXT program, but was made a livestreaming event in 2022.
