Jack is the perfect Halloween character in Animal Crossing
When it comes to Halloween, Jack is not a newbie. He has hosted Halloween in all editions of the game with Animal Crossing: Wild World as the only exception. The host is very important for the players because he gives special Halloween-based items and is the only source of these items.
Jack is a mischievous pumpkin and is the only non-animal character in the game alongside Wisp. As of now, Nintendo is yet to announce the items. However, previous versions of the game suggest that he will hand out items like spooky furniture in return for candy.
Jack also plays mini-games where other villagers disguise themselves as the Halloween pumpkin. Players should make sure that they give candy to Jack for a treat, or he will play a prank on them by either changing their clothes or stealing something from their inventory. In simple words, Jack will make sure that everyone gets a trick or a treat.
These Jack roles are all based on previous editions. It is obvious that he will have something new for everyone this Halloween.
