Jack, the self-proclaimed czar of Halloween

October is the tenth month of the year where the scenery continues to transition into autumn. In the Southern Hemisphere in New Horizons, it is the second month within spring, during which the first ten days, all hardwood trees' leaves will turn into cherry blossom petals which will gradually begin showering over the island by October 10th.

Halloween is a notable event in the Animal Crossing series this month, although this holiday is not in Wild World. The 31st is the only time each year to see Jack. Candy is sold throughout the month at Tom Nook's store in preparation for Halloween (in Animal Crossing).
