'''Halloween''' is an [[events|event]] in the {{SER}} that is celebrated on [[October]] 31. During the event, [[Jack]], the self-proclaimed Czar of Halloween, appears at night. During this time, both Jack and villagers around the town will ask the [[player]] for [[Candy]]. Items from the [[Spooky Series]] can be obtained from the event, or items from the [[Creepy Theme]] in {{NL}}. Halloween appears in all main series ''Animal Crossing'' games except {{WW}}. In the Japanese versions of the games, participants will say "trick or treat" in English and in Japanese. For example, in the Japanese version of {{NH}}, the participants (villagers and Jack) say "Trick or treat!" in English, and, with furigana, also in Japanese.
+
'''Halloween''' is an [[autumn]] event that is celebrated by the [[villagers]] of the [[town]] in the {{SER}}. [[Jack]], a character wearing a pumpkin on his head, appears at 6:00 P.M. until 1:00 A.M. During this time, villagers around the town will dress up like him. The event only happens in {{PG}}, {{CF}}, and {{NL}}.

===In {{PG|nolink}}===
+
Throughout [[October]], [[Candy]] is stocked and sold in [[Tom Nook's Store]], taking the place of either [[tool]]s or [[flower]]s. There are four types of Candy (green, red, yellow, and blue), but all of [[Tom Nook|Nook's]] Candy appears orange, making it hard to distinguish what color Candy he is selling.
[[File:PG Halloween Jack.png|thumb|left|The player speaking to Jack on Halloween in {{PG|nolink}}]]
 
In {{DnM}}, {{DnM+}}, {{PG}}, and {{DnMe+}}, [[Tom Nook's store]] sells {{I|Candy|Animal Crossing}} in preparation for Halloween from October 16 to 30. On Halloween, from 6:00 PM to 1:00 AM, the villagers in the players town wear Jack costumes and will chase the player when nearby. If the player is caught, the villager will ask for Candy; if the player does not give them Candy, they will either change their currently worn clothing into a {{I|Patched Shirt|Animal Crossing}}, or turn an item in their [[pockets]] into either a {{I|Jack-in-the-Box|Animal Crossing}} or {{I|Jack-o'-Lantern|Animal Crossing}}.
 
  
Jack appears in a random acre and will ask the player for Candy when spoken to. If the player gives him Candy, he gives them an item from the Spooky Series in return; if he is not given Candy, he changes the player's clothing or an item in their pockets. Each time he is spoken to, the player must leave the acre and find him again in another acre to receive another item. Jack can be distinguished from villagers in that he does not chase the player.
+
When Jack appears in the town, the villagers and [[Tortimer]] will be dressed like him. If the player is caught by villagers outside, they will ask for Candy. If the player doesn't have any on them, the villager will play a trick on the player, transforming one of their items.
  
In {{PG|nolink}} and {{DnMe+|nolink}}, Tortimer appears at the [[wishing well]] dressed as Jack and will give the player {{I|Katrina's Tent|Animal Crossing}} when spoken to. In {{DnM+|nolink}}, he instead gives the player the {{I|Police Model|Animal Crossing}}.
+
Unlike villagers, Jack won't chase the player, making him easy to distinguish from villagers. Jack can be spoken to and given a piece of Candy in order to receive [[furniture]] from the [[Spooky Series]], but will disappear once he has received a piece of Candy and re-appear in a random location.
{{Clear|left}}
 
  
===In {{CF|short|nolink}}===
+
Spooky music will play outside in the town, and there will be no rain or clouds throughout the night.
Halloween was absent from {{WW}}, but returns in {{CF}}. Unlike the original ''Animal Crossing'', not all villagers go out on Halloween night - those who remain inside become targets for trick-or-treating. Approaching a villager while indoors will result in the villager giving the player Candy, but only if the player is wearing a costume which makes up a [[Look]] in [[GracieGrace]]. An example of an appropriate look is the witch's hat and cloak, which are sold throughout [[August]], [[September]], and [[October]], and make up a suitably spooky costume. Costumes do not necessarily have to be spooky, however.
 
  
In addition to trick-or-treating indoors, from 6:00 PM until midnight, villagers will chase the player outside upon seeing them, and if the player is caught by villagers outside, they will ask for Candy. If the player does not have any on them, the villager will play a trick on the player, resulting in one of the following:
+
===In ''Animal Crossing''===
*An item in the player's pocket may be turned into a Jack-in-the-Box.
+
In {{PG}}, from 6:00 P.M. until 1:00 A.M., the player can go around their town where all the villagers are found wandering outside. If the player is seen by the villagers, they will chase them. If he or she is caught, they will be forced to give Candy to the animal. If they do not concede Candy, they will be punished by having their clothes or their items transformed. The villagers are all dressed like Jack, the self-proclaimed '''Czar of Halloween''', including [[Mayor Tortimer|Tortimer]]: in a dark blue cloak and a Jack-O'-Lantern mask. Jack and Tortimer are the only two that do not chase the player, which makes them easy to be told apart. Tortimer will give the player a Model of [[Katrina]]'s Tent when spoken to. Jack can be spoken to as many times as the player desires, in order to receive furniture from the Spooky Series.
*Any worn accessory may be turned into a Pumpkin Head.
 
*The player's shirt/dress may be transformed into a Moldy or Patched Shirt/Dress.
 
  
Unlike villagers, Jack will not chase the player, making him easy to distinguish. If Jack is approached by the player without having any Candy on them, he will give out one of four items: a Pumpkin Head, Moldy Shirt, Patched Shirt, or a Jack-in-the-Box. Refusing to give Candy to Jack four times will result in obtaining all four of those items. Otherwise, if the player gives Jack Candy, he will give the player a piece of furniture from the [[Spooky Series]].

===In ''City Folk''===
 +
Halloween was absent from {{WW}}, but returns in {{CF}}. Unlike the original ''Animal Crossing'', not all villagers go out on Halloween night - those who remain inside become targets for trick-or-treating. Approaching a villager while indoors will result in the villager giving the player candy, but only if the player is wearing a costume which makes up a [[Look]] in [[GracieGrace]]. An example of an appropriate Look is the witch's hat and cloak, which are sold throughout [[August]], [[September]] and [[October]], and make up a suitably spooky costume. Costumes don't necessarily have to be spooky, however.
  
===In {{NL|short|nolink}}===
+
In addition to trick-or-treating indoors, from 6:00 P.M. until midnight, villagers will chase the player outside upon seeing them, and if the player is caught by villagers outside, they will ask for Candy. If the player doesn't have any on them, the villager will play a trick on the player, resulting in one of the following:
Halloween is carried out the same as in {{CF|short|nolink}}, but with a few extra details. On Halloween night, the player's goal is to scare the villagers in their town. To prepare for this, during the month of October, players should buy masks from the [[Able Sisters]], and Candy from [[Timmy and Tommy's store]]. Speaking to villagers during October may reveal to the player what they are scared of. The player may also have the chance to give villagers a piece of Candy in exchange for finding out what costumes scare the other villagers.
+
*Something in your pockets may be turned into a Jack-in-the-Box
 +
*Any worn accessory on, it may be turned into a Pumpkin Head
 +
*The player's shirt may be transformed into a Moldy or Patched Shirt.
  
On Halloween night (6 PM – 12 AM), the majority of villagers will be in their homes; the rest will be dressed as Jack and will try to trick the player. The player has three tasks they can do:
+
Unlike villagers, Jack won't chase the player, making him easy to distinguish. If Jack is approached by the player without having any candy on them, Jack will give out one of four items: a Pumpkin Head, Moldy Shirt, Patched Shirt, or a Jack-in-the-Box. Refusing to give Candy to Jack four times will result in obtaining all four of those items. Otherwise, if the player gives Jack candy, Jack will give the player a piece of furniture from the [[Spooky Series]].
*'''Scare the villagers''' - The player can scare villagers in their homes by wearing the mask that each villager is scared of. When the player scares a villager for the first time, the villager will give the player a Lollipop. Subsequent scares will net the player a piece of Candy. If the player fails to scare a villager, they will get a chance to play a game with the villager; if the player wins, the villager will give the player a piece of Candy. If the player loses, the villager will do a trick, such as changing the flooring of the main room of the player's home, or changing one of the player's inventory items into a Jack-in-the-box. If the player has nothing on them, they will get old Wallpaper or Flooring instead.
 
*'''Interact with villagers outside''' - All outdoor villagers will be dressed as Jack. The villager may offer to play a game and will give the player Candy as a prize. Otherwise, the villager may just perform a trick on the player.
 
*'''Find Jack''' - Jack can be given Lollipops in exchange for pieces of the Creepy Theme. The Pumpkin King can also be given Candy in exchange for Halloween furniture or clothing.

[[File:NH Jack Fall Update.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Jack introducing himself to the player in {{NH|short|nolink}}]]
 
While initially absent from {{NH}}, Halloween returned in the [[Animal Crossing: New Horizons/Update history|Fall Update]], with Jack reprising his role as host of the event.
 
 
 
On October 1, Jack sends the player a letter informing them about Halloween; attached is {{I|Jack's Portrait|NH}}. Throughout the month, {{I|Candy|NH}} can be purchased from [[Nook's Cranny]] for {{Currency|Bells|120}} each once a day<ref name="Fall Update"/> and Halloween-themed costumes can be purchased from the [[Able Sisters]]. Additionally, villagers can teach the player [[Spooky Series]] [[DIY]] recipes throughout the month, and special body paint and colored eye contacts can be unlocked by spending {{Currency|Nook Miles|2400}} each.<ref name="ACNH Site">{{Cite web|author=Nintendo|date=September 25, 2020|url=https://www.animal-crossing.com/new-horizons/news/#!/animal-crossing-new-horizons-delivers-pumpkins-costumes-and-a-halloween-event-with-fall-update|title=Animal Crossing: New Horizons delivers pumpkins, costumes and a Halloween event with fall update|site=animal-crossing.com|retrieved=September 25, 2020}}</ref> When talking to a villager crafting a recipe that the player had already received, there's a 70% chance that the player will receive five {{I|Orange Pumpkin|NH}}s and 30% to receive one Candy.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://acnh.isomorphicbox.com/updates/1.5.0/|title=1.5.0 update|author=asteriation|retrieved=August 26, 2021|site=asteriation's miscellaneous ACNH resources}}</ref> From October 28 to October 31, two {{I|Spooky Tower|NH}}s appear outside [[Resident Services]], and some special characters wear the following clothing:
 
 
 
*Tom Nook: {{I|Impish Horns|NH}}
 
*Isabelle: {{I|Mage's Striped Hat|NH}}
 
*Timmy: {{I|Flashy Pointy-Ear Animal Hat|NH}}
 
*Tommy: {{I|Flashy Round-Ear Animal Hat|NH}}
 
*Mabel: {{I|Impish Horns|NH}}
 
*Orville: {{I|Mage's Striped Hat|NH}}
 
 
 
From 5 PM to 12 AM on October 31, outdoor villagers, who are dressed in costumes, will ask for Candy from the player. They may also approach the player when nearby, but they cannot initiate a conversation until the player talks to them. If the player gives a villager Candy, they will give them one of the following items in order:
 
 
 
#{{I|Spooky Garland|NH}} or {{I|Spooky Table Setting|NH}}
 
#{{I|Spooky Rug|NH}}
 
#{{I|Spooky Flooring|NH}} or {{I|Spooky Wall|NH}}
 
#Spooky Garland DIY recipe, if it has yet to be learned
 
#Spooky Table Setting DIY recipe, if it has yet to be learned
 
#Any unlearned DIY recipe from the Spooky Series
 
 
 
After the villager has given the following items in order, they will have the chance to give the player the following items:
 
*35% chance of a Spooky Candy Set, Spooky Garland, or Spooky Table Setting or an unlearned DIY recipe of a Spooky Candy Set, Spooky Garland, or Spooky Table Setting.
 
*20% chance of a Spooky Flooring, Spooky Wall, or Spooky Rug.
 
*22.5% chance of five non-Orange Pumpkins, or ten Orange Pumpkins if the player hasn't received a non-Orange Pumpkin.
 
*22.5% chance of ten Orange Pumpkins.
 
 
 
In addition, each time the player gives a villager Candy, the player is more likely to receive a {{I|Lollipop|NH}}. This is determined by a hidden counter that calculates the amount of Candy the player has given to a villager. Once the player has receive a Lollipop, the counter resets to zero.

If the player gives the villager a Lollipop, they will always receive a {{I|Spooky Candy Set|NH}}. If the player refuses to give them Candy, the villager will "trick" the player by applying body and face paint along with colored eye contacts.

Jack will also be seen roaming around near Resident Services, and players can give him Candy or Lollipops. Giving him Candy will cause the player to receive the following items:
 
 
 
*30% chance of a {{I|Jack's Face|NH}} or {{I|Jack's Robe|NH}}.
 
*35% chance of five non-Orange Pumpkins, or ten Orange Pumpkins if the player hasn't received a non-Orange Pumpkin.
 
*35% chance of ten Orange Pumpkins.
 
 
 
By giving him a Lollipop, the player is able to receive the following items in order:  
 
 
 
#{{I|Spooky Carriage|NH}}
 
#Spooky Carriage DIY recipe, if it has yet to be learned
 
#Spooky Wand DIY recipe, if it has yet to be learned
 
 
 
Subsequent rewards will be either Jack's Face or Jack's Robe.
 
 
 
Indoor villagers, also dressed in costumes, will give players Candy every five minutes, but only if the player is wearing Halloween clothing, such as the {{I|Raggedy Outfit|NH}}.
 
 
 
Besides being decorative, Jack's Face and Jack's Robe will trick villagers into thinking the player is Jack if both are worn, and the villager will give the player Candy regardless of whether they have already done so. However, each villager will only be fooled once. The outfit will also allow players to not be chased by villagers.
 
 
 
There are two [[Reaction]]s that can be learned from the event: Scare and Haunt. The former can be learned by giving Candy to any villager, and the latter by giving Candy to Jack.
 
 
 
===In {{aF|short|nolink}}===
 
In the [[Board Game]] mode in {{aF}}, Jack appears on October 1 and scatters pieces of candy across the town. Throughout the month, players can collect the candy; candy appears floating between spaces in groups of 3 or 5.
 
 
 
At the end of the day on October 31, Jack appears again and depending on how much candy was collected in total, gives all the players [[Happy Point]]s. If 180 or more pieces of candy were collected throughout the month, Jack gives all players 20 Happy Points. He then gives each player a different amount of bonus Happy Points based on how much candy they collected whether or not the 180 goal was met; first-place receives up to 20 Happy Points, second-place receives up to 15, third-place receives up to 10, and fourth-place receives up to 5.

==Notes==

===In ''New Leaf''===
{{Note list}}
+
Halloween is carried out the same as in ''City Folk'', but with a few extra details. In the days leading up to Halloween, the player will receive a letter from [[Jack]] like in previous games, but also a mask that the player can wear. On Halloween night, Lollipops are now given out when the player scares a [[villager]] in their home. When a piece of candy is given to a villager, they will tell you what costumes scare the other villagers. Meanwhile, candy is given out if the player beats a villager in a game; losing, however, can have consequences, such as changing the flooring of the main room of the player's home, or changing on of the player's inventory items into a Jack-in-the-box.
