Animal Crossing Jack Czar of Halloween: Everything You Need to Know

Jack, the Czar of Halloween, has hosted the Halloween event in Animal Crossing ever since the original, with an absence in Wild World. On Halloween night, he brings some mischievous fun to partake in, and some special items you can only get from Jack.

In New Horizons, the Halloween Event will run from 5 p.m. until midnight on Oct. 31. You'll get to give out candy to your neighbors and receive rewards in return. It's not known right now what Jack will give you, but in previous games, giving him candy will get you special creepy items like Spooky furniture.

To prepare for the event, you can buy Candy from the Nook store. You can buy Candy right when the update drops on Sept. 30.

In previous Animal Crossing games, Jack would play a mini-game with you where other villagers will dress like him. If you gave him Candy, he would give you a treat in return. If you didn't, he'll pull a nasty trick on you like taking an item from your inventory or by changing your clothes.
