Let $F$ be a totally real field and $p$ be an odd prime which splits completely in $F$. We prove that the eigenvariety associated to a definite quaternion algebra over $F$ satisfies the following property: over a boundary annulus of the weight space, the eigenvariety is a disjoint union of countably infinitely many connected components which are finite over the weight space; on each fixed connected component, the ratios between the $U_mathfrak{p}$-slopes of points and the $p$-adic valuations of the $mathfrak{p}$-parameters are bounded by explicit numbers, for all primes $mathfrak{p}$ of $F$ over $p$. Applying Hansens $p$-adic interpolation theorem, we are able to transfer our results to Hilbert modular eigenvarieties. In particular, we prove that on every irreducible component of Hilbert modular eigenvarieties, as a point moves towards the boundary, its $U_p$ slope goes to zero. In the case of eigencurves, this completes the proof of Coleman-Mazurs `halo conjecture.
