'''October''' is the tenth month of the year. It is the second month of [[fall]] in the [[Northern Hemisphere]], in which both the grass and trees deteriorate from green to yellow, with more critters leaving after this month. It is also the second month of [[spring]] in the [[Southern Hemisphere]], in which the first few days of October has every hardwood tree transform their leaves into {{I|Cherry-Blossom Petal|New Horizons|text=cherry blossom petals}}, eventually shattering around October 7.

Halloween is a notable event in the {{SER}} this month, although this holiday is not in {{WW|short|nolink}}. October 31 is the only opportunity each year to see [[Jack]]. [[Candy]] is sold throughout the month in preparation for Halloween.
