Halloween has officially arrived in 99 Nights in the Forest, bringing with it spooky decorations, new quests, and a limited-time Trick or Treat event. In this update, you go out trick-or-treating to get candies. You can then use these candies to get exclusive seasonal rewards. So, to help you get all the rewards, this guide will walk you through every step to help you farm candies and candles easily.
How To Trick or Treat in 99 Nights in the Forest
To start Trick or Treating, you must first find and light NPC houses scattered across the forest. These houses can include special ones like the Fairy House, Alien House, or Pumpkin Cabin, and are marked on your map by a gray hut icon with a candy symbol.
Once you’ve located a house, bring a Halloween Candle to light it. After lighting, wait until nighttime, as you can only Trick or Treat after dark. Approach the door and knock to trigger one of two outcomes:
- Treat: The NPC will reward you with Candy, and occasionally, extra loot such as coins or special event items.
- Trick: The NPC might play a prank, temporarily turning you into a frog or trapping you with a Prison Ball for a few seconds.
The trick effects are harmless and short-lived, lasting only about five seconds. You can revisit the same house the next night by relighting it with another candle.
How To Get Candles in 99 Nights in the Forest
Candles are essential for Trick or Treating, as you need one for every house you visit. There are multiple ways to obtain them:
- Defeating Cultists: Cultists have a small chance of dropping Halloween Candles when defeated. The drop rate increases after Day 4, especially during Cultist Raids in the Volcanic Biome.
- Opening Chests: You can occasionally find Halloween Candles in treasure chests scattered across the map, though the drop rate is relatively low.
Do note that the longer you survive, the higher the overall drop frequency. So, if you want to farm candles efficiently, your best bet is to target Cultist Camps in the Volcanic Biome, as these areas have the highest spawn rate of Cultists and lootable chests, that too after Day 4.
How To Get Candy in 99 Nights in the Forest
Candies are the core event currency for Halloween 2025 in 99 Nights in the Forest. You can obtain them through several methods, so we've mentioned all the possible methods below:
- Trick or Treating: Each lit house you visit at night grants you 2-5 Candies per interaction.
- Lobby Hidden Candies: Check the main lobby for hidden candies behind the update signboard and inside the pumpkins near the Halloween NPC. These respawn periodically.
- Defeating Cultists: Some Cultists drop a small amount of Candy alongside candles.
- Event Chests: Event-themed chests can rarely drop large bundles of Candy.
Once you have enough Candy, you can spend it at the Halloween Shop managed by the Scarecrow NPC, located in the game lobby.
