Some Halloween-themed items are available for purchase from Nook’s Cranny, throughout October. Although it could take some time to land a specific item from the store, it’s a good alternative to crafting.
Besides that, players can also obtain DIY recipes for spooky items by talking to villagers crafting in their homes. There is also the usual way of learning DIY recipes from message bottles washed up on the beach and balloon presents in the sky. Crafting the items using a recipe will require Orange Pumpkins that players will have to grow and harvest.

After receiving the exclusive items, players can obtain the other Spooky Set items and recipes from Nook’s Cranny and villagers crafting in their homes after October 31. However, there are a few exceptions.
