    Iirc I think it’s every 7 in-game days (unaffected by sleeping or resting at fires), and nearly 3 hours real-time, but when you kill enough enemies it happens automatically so if you do a lot of killing then blood moons will happen more often.

      I don’t think it’s on any sort of timer, 7 in game days is just a coincidence afaik.

      It helps the game refresh so it doesn’t have as much data, about what monsters, items, etc are gone, to keep track of. It is a very clever double whammy feature that makes the game run better and more fun to play.
