Adopt Me introduced Jumpscare, a Rare pet available for a limited time, in the Halloween: Ghost Gallery update dated October 3, 2026. This little ghost floats inside a faint white aura, with a rounded shape, glowing light-blue coloring, oversized teal eyes, and pale yellow cheeks that look rosy. Once the Halloween event ends, trading will be the sole way to obtain it.
Quick answer: Buy the Jumpscare from the pedestal inside the Manor for 40,000 Candy Corn, or hatch it from a Basic, Crystal, or Admin Abuse egg.
Buy the Jumpscare at the Manor
The most direct route is the pedestal purchase inside the Manor, the large haunted house at the top of the hill in the Halloween area. The Jumpscare sits on display there, and paying 40,000 Candy Corn hands you one copy instantly. This is the method you can plan around, since it costs a fixed amount rather than relying on luck.
Hatch it from eggs
Three eggs can hatch into a Rare pet, and the Jumpscare is one of the Rare results. The odds listed below are the chance of pulling a Rare tier, not the Jumpscare specifically, so hatching is a gamble. The Basic and Crystal eggs come from the Tickets shop, while the Admin Abuse egg is tied to weekly events.
| Egg | Cost | Rare chance |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Egg | 400 Tickets | 4% |
| Crystal Egg | 4,000 Tickets | 50% |
| Admin Abuse Egg | Free (weekly events) | 35% |
If hatching is your goal, the Crystal Egg gives the best Rare odds at a 50% chance. The Admin Abuse Egg is free but only comes from taking part in the weekly Admin Abuse events. You can also skip hatching entirely and pick one up through trading with another player.
Earning the 40,000 Candy Corn
Candy Corn is the event currency for the Halloween season, and you need a large stack of it for the pedestal purchase. Two activities build it up fastest.
Neon and Mega Neon forms
Fusing multiple copies creates upgraded forms. Yellow light covers the Neon Jumpscare from head to toe, including its hands and feet. The Mega Neon lights up those same areas, but shifts through rainbow colors.
| Form | Copies needed | Cost if bought directly |
|---|---|---|
| Neon | 4 Jumpscares | 160,000 Candy Corn |
| Mega Neon | 16 Jumpscares | 640,000 Candy Corn |
Buying all 16 copies for a Mega Neon runs to 640,000 Candy Corn, so mixing in egg hatches and trades is far cheaper than paying the pedestal price every time.
Tricks the Jumpscare learns
As you age the pet up through its growth stages, it unlocks tricks in this order.
| Stage | Trick |
|---|---|
| Newborn | Sit |
| Junior | Joyful |
| Pre-Teen | Beg |
| Teen | Jump |
| Post-Teen | Trick 1 |
| Full Grown | Trick 2 |
Confirming you got it
After a pedestal purchase or a successful hatch, the Jumpscare lands in your inventory as a Rare pet under the Halloween event category, and a new pet notification appears on screen. From there you can equip it, age it up for the tricks above, and start stacking copies toward the Neon forms. Keep in mind the Jumpscare Badge sold for 600 Candy Corn is a separate pet accessory, not the pet itself, so don’t confuse the two at the shops.
