Halloween changes that will occur in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

For starters, around October 28, Isabelle will start wearing the brown jacket she wears throughout the colder months. Perhaps the change exclusive to Halloween is her new Witch’s Hat that she will wear for every announcement until November 1. Isabelle will be sporting the outfit inside Resident Services too.

Apart from Isabelle, many other characters will be dressing up in the spirit of Halloween. Players will find Tom Nook wearing red-colored horns, while Timmy and Tommy will be wearing animal hats matching their furs’ color. Mable will also wear horns, while Orville will sport a hat. However, Sable, Wilbur, and Blathers will not wear anything special for Halloween.

Some decorations in the form of pumpkin towers and bunting will go up around Resident Services near Halloween. Combined with the pumpkin-themed items that a player can craft, these decorations will induce spooky vibes to the plaza and the whole island.

Some other exciting changes

On the day of the Halloween event, players can unlock two new reactions, one from Jack and the other from their villagers. The two reactions are Haunt and Scare. These reactions will create an entirely separate page, hinting at more reactions coming in the future to fill up the empty slots.

Players will also notice changes in their island’s scenery, although these aren’t directly linked to Halloween. The color of the trees will undergo subtle changes. After that, the color of grass and trees will change even more drastically throughout November, indicating the full swing of the fall season.
