When I played on Sunday, I found Patty all packed up to move out of town (as expected).
I played again today, and I received her goodbye letter in the mail.
Of course, today is Halloween. The first thing I did was change to my Guest character to get candy out of his pockets and house. (I think he has more in storage too, but I didn’t even get it out. I figured I had enough already.) I put the candy on the ground, and then switched back to my main character.
After changing into my cavalier costume (since I already used the mummy outfit last year), I tried to do my normal errands before the event started at 6:00 p.m. Mint warned me that it was going to start as I was out walking around, but I was already keeping an eye on the clock.
I was also using that time to trap my outdoor villagers before they turned into pumpkin-headed maniacs. It’s your turn to be trapped, Mint! 😛
I trapped four of my five outdoor villagers; only Antonio surprised me a bit later. I had to give him a piece of candy, but I was then able to trap him without much trouble. In fact, the whole night, that was the only piece of candy I had to waste on a villager, since they all stayed trapped. They were the most well-behaved little candy-obsessed, pumpkin-headed demons I could ever ask for. 😆
But the night was really about finding Jack, and giving him candy in exchange for spooky furniture.
Of course, my costume also allowed me to trick-or-treat for additional candy at the homes of my four indoor villagers. (Patty’s replacement hasn’t moved in yet, so I only have nine villagers at the moment.)
I continued searching for Jack, and stocking up on spooky furniture.
I kept going until I used up all of the candy I had, scoring 26 pieces of spooky stuff.
Each one was worth 10,310 bells (even the wallpaper and carpets), so I earned a total of 268,060 bells. That doesn’t even count today’s fossils and balloon presents I shot down.

I hope you all had a happy Halloween! 🎃 See you next time! Never Stop Crossing!
