What is the Ghoul Garden Event?

The Ghoul Garden event is Grow a Garden’s first-ever Halloween celebration, running from October 11, 2025, to October 25, 2025. This massive update introduces a brand-new event island where the Witch NPC stands guard over her mysterious cauldron. Every 45 minutes, the Halloween Night event spawns a magical market filled with three exclusive shops, but you’ll need to act fast – these shops only remain open for 15 minutes!

Event Currency: Candy Corns Forget everything you know about Sheckles – during this Halloween event, Candy Corns are king! This special currency can be obtained by contributing fruits to the Witch’s cauldron or interacting with the Jack-O’-Lantern NPC. The more you contribute, the more Candy Corns you’ll earn to spend on spooky seeds, pets, and decorations.

Complete 2026 Spooky Seeds Catalog

Let me break down every spooky seed available in the Halloween shop, based on my extensive research and hands-on experience with each one.

Bloodred Mushroom (Uncommon) – 15 Candy Corns

The Bloodred Mushroom is your gateway to the spooky season! As the most affordable option at just 15 Candy Corns, this uncommon seed is perfect for beginners looking to dip their toes into the Halloween festivities.

Key Features:

• Fast growth cycle (approximately 2-3 minutes)
• Produces 2-3 mushrooms per harvest
• Sells for a modest but steady profit
• Perfect for quick Candy Corn farming

Why I Love It: The Bloodred Mushroom is incredibly reliable and serves as an excellent foundation for your spooky garden. While it may not have the flashiest appearance, its consistent output makes it a solid investment for both new and experienced players.

Jack O’Lantern (Rare) – 20 Candy Corns

What’s Halloween without Jack O’Lanterns? This classic spooky seed brings the iconic Halloween aesthetic to your garden with its glowing orange pumpkins and carved faces.

Key Features:

• Medium growth time (4-5 minutes)
• Produces 1-2 pumpkins per harvest
• High visual appeal with carved faces
• Great for garden decoration and screenshots
• Sells for above-average prices

Pro Tip: Plant these near the front of your garden for maximum visual impact. The Jack O’Lantern’s glowing effect makes your entire garden look more festive and can even attract other players to visit your spooky paradise!

Ghoul Root (Legendary) – 25 Candy Corns

Prepare to be amazed by the Ghoul Root, one of my personal favorites from this Halloween update! This legendary seed grows into a freakishly tall root with actual arms and a spooky face that will definitely give your garden the creeps.

Key Features:

• Longer growth time (6-7 minutes)
• Single harvest but impressive size
• Unique animated appearance with moving arms
• Moderate profit potential
• Excellent for Halloween-themed garden displays

Why It’s Special: The Ghoul Root isn’t just about profits – it’s about creating an atmosphere. This seed transforms your garden from ordinary to extraordinary with its haunting presence and spooky animations. It’s perfect for showing off to friends and taking those epic garden screenshots!

Chicken Feed (Mythical) – 30 Candy Corns

Don’t let the name fool you – Chicken Feed is actually one of the most productive seeds in the Halloween shop! This mythical seed lives up to its rarity with impressive yields and multiple harvest capabilities.

Key Features:

• Medium growth time (5-6 minutes)
• Produces 3-4 items per harvest
• Multiple harvest potential from single planting
• High cumulative yield over time
• Excellent for long-term Candy Corn farming

Investment Strategy: Chicken Feed requires a higher upfront investment but pays off over time. If you’re planning to play consistently throughout the event, this seed offers the best return on investment for active players who can harvest regularly.

Seer Vine (Divine) – 40 Candy Corns

The Seer Vine represents the pinnacle of spooky seed sophistication! This divine rarity seed produces a single harvest at a time, but each harvest can sell for tons of Sheckles when paired with the right mutations.

Key Features:

• Long growth time (8-10 minutes)
• Single but extremely valuable harvest
• High base value with excellent mutation potential
• Perfect for profit-focused players
• Requires strategic mutation planning

Advanced Strategy: Pair the Seer Vine with mutation-boosting pets and focus on quality over quantity. A single well-mutated Seer Vine harvest can outperform multiple harvests of lower-tier seeds, making it ideal for players who prefer less frequent but more profitable harvesting.

Why It’s Worth It: Despite the steep 50 Candy Corn price tag, Poison Apple delivers unmatched value. These apple-type plants produce multiple fruits at once, and each sells for a hefty price. When combined with the right mutations, Poison Apples can make you incredibly wealthy in no time. This is the seed you buy when you’re serious about dominating the Halloween event!

How to Get Candy Corns?

Now that you know about all the amazing spooky seeds available, let’s talk about how to get the Candy Corns needed to purchase them!

Method 1: Witch’s Cauldron Contribution

The most reliable method for earning Candy Corns is contributing fruits to the Witch’s Cauldron in the center of the event island. Here’s how it works:

1. Grow and Harvest Fruits: Plant any seeds in your garden and harvest their fruits
2. Visit the Witch: Go to the event island and approach the Witch NPC
3. Contribute Fruits: Interact with the cauldron and submit your harvested fruits
4. Receive Rewards: Get guaranteed Candy Corns plus a chance at bonus items

Pro Tips:

• Use your fastest-growing plants for maximum contribution efficiency
• Higher rarity fruits generally yield more Candy Corns
• The cauldron has progress milestones that reward bonus Candy Corns when reached
• Contributing during peak hours often yields better rewards

Method 2: Jack-O’-Lantern NPC Interaction

Every 2 hours, a special Jack-O’-Lantern NPC appears on the right side of the Witch. This pumpkin offers a trick-or-treat style interaction that can reward you with Candy Corns or even rare Spooky Eggs!

How It Works:

1. Wait for Spawn: Check every 2 hours for the Jack-O’-Lantern appearance
2. Interact: Press ‘E’ to interact with the pumpkin
3. Submit Fruit: Equip a fruit in your hand and select the contribution option
4. Receive Trick or Treat: Get either Candy Corns (treat) or a surprise (trick)

Best Strategy:

• Save your highest-value fruits for Jack-O’-Lantern interactions
• The pumpkin has a higher chance of giving rare rewards when contributed with rare fruits
• Set a timer to check every 2 hours so you never miss an opportunity
• The “trick” results can sometimes be more valuable than the treats!

Method 3: Event Shop Purchases

If you’re running low on time but have Robux to spare, you can purchase Candy Corns directly from the event shop:

Available Packages:

• Small Bundle: 100 Candy Corns for 149 Robux
• Medium Bundle: 300 Candy Corns for 429 Robux
• Large Bundle: 1,000 Candy Corns for 1,249 Robux

When to Buy: Only consider this option if you’re short on time but have the budget. The free methods are generally more efficient if you have time to play regularly.

FAQ

Based on common questions from the community, here are answers to the most frequently asked questions about the Halloween event and spooky seeds:

When does the Ghoul Garden event end?

The Ghoul Garden event runs from October 11, 2025, to October 25, 2025, giving you exactly two weeks to collect all the spooky seeds and Halloween items. Make sure to plan your time accordingly, as once the event ends, these limited-time items won’t be available again until next year!

What’s the best way to farm Candy Corns quickly?

The most efficient Candy Corn farming method is to focus on fast-growing plants like Bloodred Mushrooms, harvest them frequently, and contribute the fruits to the Witch’s Cauldron. For maximum efficiency, plant a large garden of Bloodred Mushrooms and harvest them every 2-3 minutes, then contribute all fruits to the cauldron. This method can generate 100-200 Candy Corns per hour with consistent play.

Are spooky seeds worth the investment compared to regular seeds?

Absolutely! Spooky seeds offer several advantages over regular seeds: higher base values, better mutation potential, Halloween-themed appearances, and limited-time exclusivity. While they require Candy Corns instead of regular currency, their profit potential and visual appeal make them excellent investments during the event period.

Can I get spooky seeds after the Halloween event ends?

Unfortunately, no. The spooky seeds and Halloween event items are limited-time exclusives that will only be available during the Ghoul Garden event from October 11-25, 2025. After this period, you’ll need to wait until next year’s Halloween event to obtain these items again, making them valuable collector’s items.

What’s the difference between Candy Corns and regular Sheckles?

Candy Corns are the special event currency used exclusively for Halloween event items, while Sheckles are the regular in-game currency. You can’t use Sheckles to purchase spooky seeds or Halloween pets, and Candy Corns cannot be used for regular game purchases. This separation ensures that Halloween event progress is tied specifically to event participation.

How do I get the special Great Pumpkin seed?

The Great Pumpkin seed is a limited-edition transcendent seed that can be obtained through special event achievements and high-level contributions to the Witch’s Cauldron. Focus on maximizing your cauldron contributions and completing event challenges to increase your chances of obtaining this rare seed. It’s also available as a rare drop from the Jack-O’-Lantern NPC.

What pets work best with spooky seeds?

The best pets for spooky seeds depend on your goals: Black Cat is excellent for increasing fruit size, Spider accelerates plant growth, and Headless Horseman provides powerful mutation abilities. For a balanced approach, I recommend starting with Black Cat and Spider, then working toward Headless Horseman as you progress.

Can I trade spooky seeds with other players?

Yes, spooky seeds can be traded with other players, making them valuable commodities in the trading community. However, be cautious of scams and only trade with trusted players. The rarest seeds like Poison Apple and Great Pumpkin are particularly valuable in the trading market.

What mutations should I prioritize for spooky seeds?

For maximum profit, prioritize mutations that increase fruit value (Golden, Giant, Rainbow) and harvest quantity (Abundant, Swift). For Halloween-themed effects, focus on Spooky, Moonlit, and Dreadbound mutations. The best approach is to experiment with different combinations to find what works best for your playstyle.

How often do the Halloween shops spawn?

The Halloween market, including all three shops, spawns every 45 minutes and remains open for exactly 15 minutes. There’s no way to speed up this process, so it’s important to check regularly and be ready to make your purchases quickly when the shops appear.

Conclusion

The Ghoul Garden Halloween event in Grow a Garden offers an incredible opportunity to transform your garden into a spooky paradise while building wealth through strategic seed investments.
