Once again I am glad that New Horizons Halloween is Baby Mode because I remember how hard the event could be in previous installments and I'm really glad the villagers don't initiate conversation with you themselves anymore. It's not like in Gamecube days where they would demand candy and for a trick they PERMANENTLY WRECK poo poo IN YOUR INVENTORY. If you were for some reason carrying some once-in-a-lifetime item in your pockets? Gone, reduced to atoms.

I’m trying! Some lady is in the way!

EDIT: Sorry, we had to walk through flowers. We took three gifts. And I just now realize I’m quoting the wrong post. Happy Halloween.

This was a blast, thanks for opening up tonight!

Lots of great islands with decorations aplenty, I'll be back out trick-or-treating and crossing animals after a break.

Ruby was... the opposite of spooped. Not sure if that's unique to her or if all peppy villagers react that way, I didn't want to try it on Bianca.

Annabelle wanted to be my apprentice, too, but since Bunny stayed inside, so I'm not sure if all peppy villagers have the same response. :)

I was worried with how few candies I'd bought, but it was nice how easy it was to shake down get more donated so you could get all the prizes. Although I'm sad Monique didn't deem my Link costume spooky enough for a treat and made me go change.

Really cute event, nice and quick to get done (I forgot all about it until a bit ago, banged all my stuff out nice and fast, I had been collecting candy/DIY through the month so I just needed the day-of stuff) and it seems most villager types have their own cute spin on how they act. Plus I'm always a slut for Spooky Season, I'm probably gonna keep my little Halloween patch for good, got a nice little pumpkin farm with the spooky stuff around it and all. Here's hoping Thanksgiving and Christmas stuff is as fun.

I went with a full-on pirate costume, and then Dom pranked me with some green makeup. Now I'm a :spooky: dead pirate! :spooky:

Jack sure does love giving away his robes... I think I've got everything at this rate.

My Island is a mess, sorry. I have islanders to scare, though.

Please only take the stuff on the west south beach, or the clothes from the very east beach, thanks. Or catalogue. Also I have many pumpkins to take.

Also, I love posts.

on the one hand it was nice that the halloween event was pretty quick and easy to complete, on the other hand i did kinda enjoy having to power through like a full day of playing in the old halloween events. the gamecube version event took me legit like 8 fuckin hours to get the full spooky set back in the day lmao.

I wish there were dress able mannequins in the game. I could add a bunch of Jack's around the island... Standin' and spoopin'.

I've learned not to stockpile candy so much, at least. I had far, far more than I needed. Ah well.

And now it's mushroom season. And a whole bunch of new poo poo to chase down, dig up (gently caress mole crickets), fish up or swim for.

I want to establish what I need to catch in order to fill out a few gaps I have in my critterpedia. There are ample resources that list all the critters of course, but the one's I've seen are all lists of critters.

Is there a resource out there that visually structures things like the in-game critterpedia itself? E.g. so when in game I see I have don't have the critter below 'blue weevil beetle', an online resource will visually indicate what goes there?

Edit: Ah, no worries, a brain fart on my part. Nookipedia's critter list is in the correct order, so I can still easily work out what I'm missing.

The person that pranked you should also have given you a mirror to take it off with. Or any mirror if you already have one.

e: oh shoot, the marker lines don't come off?

KK's here a day late because obviously yesterday was Halloween. Once you've requested the 3 secret songs, are there certain other ones you should prioritise asking him for? The Nook Shopping one has been repeating ones I already have semi-frequently and there are still a lot I need, do certain ones come up for sale more/less often?

I just have him pick a song himself randomly over giving him a mood or specifying one in particular, and I've yet to get one that I had already.

So I forgot to log into AC yesterday for Halloween. Is it possible to time travel back to a few days before so I can get candy and do the event, or would I have needed to actually log into the game on Halloween?

You can get candy during the event by trick-or-treating and visiting your villagers at home
