To start the Halloween Event activities in Animal Crossing New Horizons, you will need an important item: Candy.
Halloween is a time-specific event in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It will start at 5 PM on 31 Oct. when Jack visits the Town Plaza. Speaking with him will give you an idea of what you should do to get Halloween rewards, reactions, recipes, and costumes in ACNH.
Candy is an essential item that will help you on Halloween, and if you have a shortage of it, you may be unable to get your hands on some Halloween items. Let’s start with how you should prepare for it to help you get the most out of this October event.How to prepare for the Halloween Event in Animal Crossing New Horizons
Even though it is a one-day event that will start at 5 PM and end at midnight, its preparation should be started from 1 Oct. Candy is the first and most essential item you will need at Halloween. You can only purchase it in October from Nook’s Cranny for 120 Bells, but you can’t buy more than one daily.
We recommend gathering at least 15 to 20 candies before Halloween so you can unlock all the reactions and Spooky DIY recipes in ACNH.
It would be best to start growing Pumpkins as October begins so you can use them. An early start is better since you will need orange-colored pumpkins for recipes; getting them is not guaranteed.
To start growing pumpkins, we recommend purchasing pumpkin starters from Leif. Nook’s Cranny will charge you 280 Bells per Pumpkin Start, double Leif’s price. Growing them is similar to flowers; you must water them for four days.
