Witches Grab Bags can be empty

I used the 12 Event Tickets on my account to buy 6 Witches Grab Bags.

The first bag contained a skeletal marionette part. I already have the memento on my account, but the character I was using didn't have the Bare Bones Puppet achievement.

The next five grab bags were empty, I got nothing out of them. I now have 0 event tickets on my account.

This is not what I was expecting.

Edit: a few more details...

I already have on my account the apple bobbing momento and 4 spectre masks that now say they come out of the Grab bags.
The character that opened the Grab Bags has the full Hollow Jack motif, but I have a new character on my account that has no pages learnt from that motif.

Glad I didn't use crowns to buy those tickets.

    Presumably, if you had purchased and opened the grab bags on the new character that doesn't know the HJ motif, you would have gotten HJ pages. But, you opened them with a character who has everything already, except the Bare Bones Puppet achievement. It's interesting that you can still get those even with the memento if the character still needs the achievement.

    Well it's important to know that spending tickets on grab bags can easily get you nothing.

    I have participated in this event and have quite a few (not all) of the items, so it's nice to be warned not to waste tickets.

    Thanks!

    Not sure if it's the same issue, but I've had several containers delete themselves instead of opening over the last hour or so on PTS. Didn't notice at first, but after my infinite geode vanished I realized what had been going on.

    If this is happening with all containers in the game, @ZOS is gonna need to patch it asap!

    ooohhhhhhh.......

    I have noticed an ongoing thing that seems to be slightly .. ."less rare" lately where I will click on an urn or something to loot it (most often on urns in dwemer lairs or in altmer/summerset places) and it will just for a moment display the dark "Urn" and then flip over to the paler "empty".

    Wonder if it's related?

    Not only that I've killed bosses 7 to 8 times and had only 1 or two plunder skulls drop.
    Most times only gold drops nothing else as would be normal.

    Even had nothing from a boss other than it glow like it had a drop press "E" and NOTHING!!!!

    Bloody witch *** and her deceiving bargain! lol.
    (No offence meant to DOGS, ZOS, any human living or dead, or other life forms except the deceitful non compliance with a bargain it's VOID.)

    I've opened the gold and normal skulls a few times items that showed did not end up in inventory, or a few were missing.

    Also a bug the Gruesome Snack the D Bloody Mara is wrong they changed the name but failed to fix it in the festival.

    Guess it's a fail to the coder that changed the recipe name and failed to change or bother checking where else it might effect.
