Candy

Candy is the product that is sold throughout October in preparation for Halloween. It is a boiled sweet wrapped in a red wrapper. On Halloween night, from 6 PM until 1 AM the next morning, in Animal Crossing villagers dressed as Jack, the King of Halloween, will chase the player in order to receive Candy. If the player refused to concede Candy, their clothes or inventory items would be transformed. Giving Candy to Jack himself would let the player be in reception of a piece of the Spooky Furniture set.

Absence and Return
Candy, along with its corresponding event, furniture set, and holiday character were absent from Animal Crossing: Wild World. However, they all make their return in Animal Crossing: City Folk. However, Candy can be given to the player by visiting the houses of the villagers who stayed in on Halloween night by wearing a costume.(Example: Bunny hat and fluffy shirt) Also, during the new event, Festivale, Candy can be won from villagers in little challenges, and supplied to the host of the festival - Pavé the peacock. They also can be found on Bunny Day, in some eggs. So if you have done these events, be sure to save that candy to give to Jack!
