Animal Crossing: New Horizons: Complete Guide to DIY Pumpkin Crafting Recipes & Spooky Furniture

What is the pumpkin series of crafting recipes?

The pumpkin-themed crafting recipes available in the autumn update are officially called the "Spooky" series of furniture in New Horizons. These Halloween-themed items require a new crafting material that you must grow — pumpkins — the starts of which are available as of October 1st at Nook's Cranny (and from Leif).

There are four different colors of pumpkin that you can grow for crafting, each grown at random from starts: orange, green, white and yellow. While the DIY recipes themselves only call for orange-colored pumpkins, you can use the other colors to customise your crafts.

How do you get Spooky pumpkin DIY recipes?

There are two ways to get recipes for crafting these pumpkin-y items, one is on Halloween night, by giving candy to your fellow islanders.

The Spooky pumpkin-themed recipes are also available by traditional means, as well - including collecting them from your neighbors randomly as they craft in their homes throughout October.

Of course, we still recommend stocking up on candy each day at Nook's Cranny throughout October, as you're most likely to get the Spooky recipes on Halloween night. One piece per player, per day may be purchased - but if you have multiple save files on your island, this is a great way to obtain a few extra pieces (up to eight per day, to be exact). You'll need some for crafting, as well.

Additionally, many of the items are obtainable on various days at Nook's Cranny in the seasonal item section - be sure to check there and collect as many spooky items as you can throughout the month (we've denoted the items that are available for purchase in the table below).

In the meantime, there are still plenty of fall recipes to collect and craft - check out our comprehensive guide to all of the autumn DIY recipes available this season!
