It’s that time of the year again – the haunted Battle Bus is back, the island is dripping with cobwebs and Jack-o’-Lanterns, and the 2026 Fortnitemares event has officially kicked off. I’ve been diving into the spooky festivities since the first minute, and let me tell you, this year’s quests are just as delightfully weird as ever. One challenge in particular has been raising eyebrows: destroy toilets. Yes, you read that right. The second batch of Fortnitemares Quests demands we seek out and demolish those porcelain thrones scattered across the map. Why would Epic Games make us do that? For the same reason we’ve danced on corpses, ridden sharks, and launched cows from trebuchets in the past – because Fortnite thrives on the absurd, and Fortnitemares is where that absurdity truly shines.
If you’re racing to unlock all the free cosmetic rewards before the event wraps up, you’ll need to knock out this task quickly. So, where do you even find toilets, and how do you destroy them efficiently? I’ve been pounding pavement (and breakable props) for hours, and I’m here to share the definitive guide.
The Objective at a Glance
To complete the challenge, players must destroy a total of five toilets or toilet stalls. It sounds simple, but knowing where to look can turn a frustrating scavenger hunt into a two-minute breeze. The quest rewards contribute to the event-exclusive set of items – gliders, wraps, maybe even an emote that sends a haunted flush echoing across the battlefield. Who wouldn’t want that?
Best Locations to Find Toilets
After dropping into dozens of matches, I’ve confirmed that toilets are most commonly found in suburban and commercial named locations. Any house with a bathroom, any restaurant with restrooms, or any locker room at a sports complex is a safe bet. But if you really want to speed-run this, you need to focus on one spot: The Raft.
🏝️ The Raft – This infamous prison POI is an absolute goldmine. Every cell block contains at least one toilet, and many have two or three clustered together. In a single pass through cell block A and B, I easily smashed six of them. Better yet, the area tends to be quieter than hot-drop zones like Mega City, so you can complete the quest with minimal interference.
🏠 Doomstadt & Sandy Steppes – If The Raft is overrun, these residential hotspots are excellent fallbacks. Doomstadt’s medieval-style houses still contain functional bathrooms (because even the Doom Slayer needs to freshen up), and Sandy Steppes’ ranch homes often have toilets in their lower levels. Just be ready for a fight – these are popular landing zones.
🍔 Commercial Kitchens & Restaurants – Many unnamed landmarks such as gas stations, diners, and burger joints feature bathroom stalls. I’ve had success in the Durrr Burger restaurant near Reckless Railways and the smaller cafes scattered in Frenzy Fields. Don’t overlook the restrooms; they’re small but usually contain a prize porcelain piece.
Here’s a quick breakdown of toilet density from my testing:
| Location | Toilets per Match (avg.) | Risk Level |
|---|---|---|
| The Raft | 8-12 | Low |
| Doomstadt | 4-6 | Medium |
| Sandy Steppes | 3-5 | Medium |
| Commercial Landmarks | 1-3 | Variable |
How to Destroy a Toilet
You might be asking: “Do I need explosives, or can I just… you know… hit it?” The answer is wonderfully primitive. Any weapon works, but the most practical method by far is your trusty pickaxe.
Here’s the drill:
-
Approach a toilet or stall.
-
Whip out your harvesting tool (default: pickaxe).
-
Swing until the object’s health bar depletes – usually three quick hits.
-
Watch it shatter into a satisfying burst of ceramic and water.
That’s it. No special keys, no rare loot. If you’re feeling extra, you can use the new Fortnitemares-exclusive Candy Corn Scythe to add some spooky flair, but it won’t be any faster. I’ve seen some players waste precious grenades or even hop into a vehicle to ram through bathrooms, but trust me – the humble pickaxe is your most efficient tool.
Pro tip: hit a toilet after it has already been “used” by another player? Still counts. The quest tracks destruction, not freshness.
My Personal Route for Instant Completion
I’ve now finished this quest on three different accounts (don’t ask), and the route I recommend is beautifully straightforward:
-
Step 1: Drop directly onto The Raft’s eastern guard tower. Grab a weapon from the chest there – just in case.
-
Step 2: Descend into the courtyard and enter the nearest cell block. Start at one end and work your way down, smashing every toilet you see.
-
Step 3: By the time you reach the opposite staircase, you’ll likely have already passed five. If not, quickly cross to the adjacent block and clean up a couple more.
-
Step 4: Congratulations – quest complete! Now you can either continue looting or make a swift exit via the nearby ziplines.
This route usually takes under 90 seconds from landing to notification pop-up. I even recorded a clip of myself breezing through it; the only tricky part was resisting the urge to read the toilet paper graffiti.
Why This Madness Matters
Some newcomers might find toilet demolition beneath them. But as a Fortnite veteran, I’ve learned that these quirky tasks are the game’s heartbeat. Fortnitemares has always blended horror and humor: you’re fending off zombies while dressed as a banana. Smashing toilets is just another chapter in that legacy. Plus, the free rewards are genuinely stellar this season – the back bling alone has a cackling skull that reacts to eliminations. Can you really afford to miss out because you refused to lift a pickaxe against bathroom fixtures?
So, are you ready to embrace the chaos? Grab your favorite spooky outfit, queue up for the island, and show those toilets who’s boss. The Fortnitemares event won’t last forever, and neither will your chance to grind out those exclusive cosmetics. Go ahead – make a splash. 🎃🔨
