Adopt Me’s Halloween event is live, and week two just dropped fresh pets into the shop. Four pets arrived in week one, one of them completely free, and week two added a spider box plus the Black Dog. The event runs until November 1, 2026. If you want every pet without wasting Candy Corn or overpaying in trades, this guide covers the exact cost of each pet, what they are worth in trades right now, and the smartest order to collect them in.

Quick answer: The Adopt Me Halloween 2026 event runs October 3 to November 1. Week one added four pets: Patchy Bear (Uncommon, 10,000 Candy Corn), Skelebat (Ultra-Rare, 76,000 Candy Corn), Kitty Bat (Legendary, free by taming with Yarn Apples), and Phantom Dragon (Legendary, 1,000 Candy Corn via the Scale the Organ ailment). Week two added the Spider Box (18,000 Candy Corn, random spider pet inside) and the Black Dog (Rare, 43,000 Candy Corn). The Kitty Bat is the best value play of the event, because a free Legendary means a free Neon Legendary for any active player.

Every Adopt Me Halloween 2026 pet and how to get it

Here is the full week one lineup, based on community tracking of the live event:

Patchy Bear (Uncommon, 10,000 Candy Corn)

Patchy Bear is the cheapest pet of week one, sitting in the Halloween Shop for 10,000 Candy Corn. It is an Uncommon with a simple stitched bear design in Halloween colors. There is nothing complicated about getting it: farm your Candy Corn, walk into the shop, buy it.

At 10,000 Candy Corn it is an easy first purchase, but keep trade expectations realistic. Uncommon event pets are the most supplied pets in the game during their week, since every player can afford one. Buy it for the collection, not as an investment.

Skelebat (Ultra-Rare, 76,000 Candy Corn)

Skelebat is the big Candy Corn purchase of week one: 76,000 from the Halloween Shop. That is nearly eight Patchy Bears worth of grinding, so this is a savings goal, not an impulse buy. The skeletal bat design is one of the stronger looks of the event, and Ultra-Rare is a meaningful rarity tier for trading.

Whether it is worth it depends on your Candy Corn income. The Hauntlet minigame pays up to 21,000 Candy Corn per completion, so four strong runs cover the bat. If you are not running minigames daily, this pet will eat your entire week one budget, and week two pets might deserve it more.

Kitty Bat (Legendary, free)

The Kitty Bat is the star of week one. It is a Legendary that costs zero Candy Corn. Kitty Bats spawn at the Playground every hour at 17 and 47 minutes past the hour. You tame them with Yarn Apples, which drop free from the Headless Horseman’s Grab Bag, and taming takes around 10 to 20 apples through a timing based minigame with a progress meter.

Here is why this pet matters more than everything else in week one: four Kitty Bats combine into a Neon, and the only cost is your time. A free Neon Legendary is the single best deal of the entire Halloween event. Set alarms for the spawn times, stockpile Yarn Apples from the Grab Bag every 10 minutes, and tame every bat you can. Players who skip this will be buying Kitty Bats from traders later at real prices.

Phantom Dragon (Legendary, 1,000 Candy Corn)

The Phantom Dragon is earned, not bought. When your pet gets the “Scale the Organ” ailment, climb the organ keys near the Hospital to complete it, and the Phantom Dragon offers itself for 1,000 Candy Corn. At that price it is effectively a second nearly free Legendary of week one.

Because it comes from an ailment rather than the shop, many players miss it entirely. Keep an eye on your pets’ needs during the event, and when the organ ailment appears, do not cure it before climbing. Two free or nearly free Legendaries in one week is unheard of, and both are Neon candidates.

How much are the Halloween 2026 pets worth in trades?

Let us be straight about what “worth” means here. There are no official Adopt Me prices. Every number in trading is a community estimate, and early event numbers move fast as supply floods in. These pets are days old, so established trade values do not exist yet for most of them.

Treat any number you see this week as history, not today’s price. For live numbers, check our Adopt Me value list, which updates as the event unfolds and values settle. That way this guide never goes stale. If you want to understand exactly where these estimates come from, our methodology page explains the process.

One pattern is worth knowing before you trade. Event pets almost always lose trade value after the event ends, because everyone who wanted one has farmed several. Week one prices are the most volatile of the whole event. If you are buying rather than farming, patience usually pays. The exceptions are pets with capped supply, and Neons made during the event, which carry a premium from collectors who missed out.

Candy Corn math: what to buy first

Candy Corn is the event currency, and everything competes for the same wallet: pets, minigame rewards, accessories, and furniture. Here is the priority order that wastes the least:

  1. Kitty Bat first. It is free. Learn the spawn times (17 and 47 minutes past each hour), stockpile Yarn Apples from the Grab Bag, and tame every one you can. There is no reason to delay this.
  2. Phantom Dragon second. At 1,000 Candy Corn via the organ ailment, it is nearly free. Watch your pets’ ailments and climb when it appears.
  3. Patchy Bear third. At 10,000 Candy Corn it is the cheapest shop pet, an easy early purchase while you save.
  4. Then make a decision. Skelebat costs 76,000 Candy Corn. That is either your big week one goal or your savings account for weeks two through four. Do not split the difference by spending 30,000 on furniture and then missing the pet you actually wanted.

For farming, the Hauntlet minigame is the backbone: up to 21,000 Candy Corn per completion. Stack it with the Headless Horseman’s Grab Bag every 10 minutes (250 to 1,000 Candy Corn each time) and the Costume Party minigame (minimum 2,800 Candy Corn per party). One rule covers everything: decide what you are saving for before you spend anything, because the expensive pets punish impulse buying.

The Neon play: cheapest path to Neon Halloween pets

If your goal is a Neon rather than the base pets, the math picks your target for you:

  • Neon Kitty Bat: 4 copies, zero Candy Corn, limited only by spawn times and your Yarn Apple stockpile. This is the cheapest Neon Legendary of the event by a mile, and possibly the best free Neon Adopt Me has ever offered.
  • Neon Phantom Dragon: 4 copies at 1,000 Candy Corn each, so 4,000 Candy Corn total, if you can get the ailment four times.
  • Neon Patchy Bear: 4 copies at 10,000 Candy Corn each, so 40,000 Candy Corn total. Reasonable for an Uncommon Neon project.

Age Up Potions speed all of this up, and they are worth stocking early. Keep your lures baited while you farm, since potion chances from baits add up over an event this long. One more veteran move: do not trade away your duplicate Kitty Bats in week one excitement. Four of them are a Neon Legendary, and that will be worth far more than any quick trade.

Week 2 is live: the Spider Box and the Black Dog

Week two arrived on October 10, 2026, and it brought spiders. The headline item is the Spider Box, plus a direct purchase pet, the Black Dog. Here is the full week two lineup based on community tracking:

PetRarityCostWhere to get it
Jumping SpiderUncommonSpider Box (18,000 Candy Corn)Halloween Shop
TarantulaRareSpider Box (18,000 Candy Corn)Halloween Shop
Chilling SpiderUltra-RareSpider Box (18,000 Candy Corn)Halloween Shop
Black WidowLegendarySpider Box (18,000 Candy Corn)Halloween Shop
Black DogRare43,000 Candy CornHalloween Shop

The Spider Box works like a lucky box. Buy it for 18,000 Candy Corn from the Halloween Shop and open it for one random spider: Jumping Spider (Uncommon, the most common pull), Tarantula (Rare), Chilling Spider (Ultra-Rare, with an icy blue glow), or Black Widow (Legendary, the chase item with the red hourglass marking). Every box costs the same, so your luck decides whether you get an Uncommon or a Legendary.

The Black Dog is simpler: 43,000 Candy Corn, direct purchase, no randomness. A Rare with a shadowy ghost dog design and glowing eyes. At 43,000 it sits in the middle of the event price range, cheaper than Skelebat but far from impulse buy territory.

On trade values: these pets are brand new, so no community trade data exists yet. Everything is TBD until prices settle, which usually takes a few days of heavy trading. Day one prices always run hot, so if you are buying boxes instead of farming, patience is cheaper than Candy Corn right now. For live numbers as they develop, check our Adopt Me value list.

Week 3 is live: Stitches, Copycat, Shoebill and Boohoo

Week three dropped on October 16, 2026, confirmed by the official Adopt Me patch notes (“Halloween: Stitches’ Spotlight Notes”). The spotlight is on the Carnival this week, which is finally open with a brand-new minigame. Here is the full week three lineup, all numbers straight from the official notes:

PetRarityCostWhere to get it
StitchesUltra-Rare70,000 Candy CornCarnival (Stitches’ Spotlight minigame)
CopycatLegendary600 RobuxManor
ShoebillUncommon18,000 Candy CornHotel (guest quest)
BoohooRare32,000 Candy CornHotel (forgotten luggage)

Stitches is the star of the week: 70,000 Candy Corn, Ultra-Rare, found hopping outside the Carnival under the moonlight. The new Stitches’ Spotlight minigame is how you farm toward it. You run around the edge of the circus tent collecting Candy Corn while Stitches sweeps a spotlight across the arena. Get caught and you lose everything you collected that round. Move between the upper and lower platforms, hide behind target boards, and do not rely on them for too long because Stitches knocks them down mid-show.

Copycat is the premium pet of the week: Legendary, 600 Robux, waiting in the Manor. Its hook is a built-in random Polymorph ability that transforms it into any pet in the game, the same idea as the Polymorph Potion, except it lives on the pet itself. You never know what you will get, which is exactly why collectors will want it.

The Hotel carries two pets this week. Shoebill is the cheapest of the week: Uncommon, 18,000 Candy Corn. An unsettled Shoebill is staying at the Hotel and the other guests’ noise is driving it mad. Talk to the guests in the hall, settle them down with items from the Crypt, and once everyone has calmed down, the Shoebill is ready to take home. Boohoo is the emotional one: Rare, 32,000 Candy Corn, a sad little poltergeist left behind in the Hotel’s forgotten luggage. Adopt it and give it a home.

On trade values: all four pets are brand new, so no community trade data exists yet. Everything is TBD until prices settle over the next few days of trading. Day one prices run hot, so farming Candy Corn through the new minigame beats buying in a panic. For live numbers as they develop, check our Adopt Me value list.

Week 4: not confirmed yet

To be clear: Adopt Me has not officially confirmed the week four pets for 2026. The only guide available is last year’s structure: in 2025, week 4 brought DJ Snooze (44,000) and Ghostly Cat (70,000). The pattern is holding again this year, with the premium pets arriving late: Copycat costs 600 Robux in week three. The event ends October 31, 2026, and after that every Halloween pet is trade-only.

Are Halloween 2026 pets worth trading for?

It depends which side of the trade you are on. Right now, supply is exploding: thousands of players are farming Kitty Bats and opening Spider Boxes simultaneously. That makes this the worst time to overpay and the best time to farm your own.

The pets to watch are the ones with capped or luck based supply. The Black Widow only comes from Spider Box pulls, so its supply grows slowly and unevenly. If you pull one, do not rush to trade it on day one. And the Kitty Bat, being free, will flood the market, which means its trade value stays low but its Neon version carries the real premium.

Whatever you decide, run the numbers before you accept anything. Plug both sides into our trade value calculator and check the demand read on our demand checker. Event week excitement is exactly when bad trades happen.

FAQs

How do you get the Kitty Bat in Adopt Me?

Kitty Bats spawn at the Playground every hour at 17 and 47 minutes past the hour. Collect Yarn Apples from the Headless Horseman’s Grab Bag (free, every 10 minutes), then use 10 to 20 apples to tame a bat through the timing based minigame. It is a Legendary that costs zero Candy Corn, making it the best free pet of the Halloween 2026 event.

What is in the Spider Box in Adopt Me?

The Spider Box costs 18,000 Candy Corn from the Halloween Shop and contains one random spider pet: Jumping Spider (Uncommon), Tarantula (Rare), Chilling Spider (Ultra-Rare), or Black Widow (Legendary). The Black Widow is the rarest pull and the most valuable for trading. Every box costs the same regardless of which spider you get.

How much is the Black Dog in Adopt Me?

The Black Dog costs 43,000 Candy Corn as a direct purchase from the Halloween Shop during week two (October 10 to 17, 2026). It is a Rare with a shadowy ghost dog design. Because it is a direct purchase with no randomness, it is the safest week two buy if you prefer guaranteed pets over lucky boxes.

How do you get the Phantom Dragon in Adopt Me?

When your pet gets the “Scale the Organ” ailment during the Halloween event, climb the organ keys near the Hospital to complete it. The Phantom Dragon then offers itself for 1,000 Candy Corn. Do not cure the ailment before climbing, or you will miss it. It is a Legendary for essentially free, and many players overlook it completely.

When does the Adopt Me Halloween 2026 event end?

The Adopt Me Halloween 2026 event runs from October 3 to November 1, 2026. New pets drop weekly, with week two live now (October 10 to 17) and weeks three and four still to come. Everything in the event shops, pets, accessories, must be bought before November 1, because event items leave the game when the event ends.

What is the cheapest Neon to make in the Halloween 2026 event?

The Kitty Bat, by an enormous margin. Four copies cost zero Candy Corn, the only requirement is Yarn Apples from the free Grab Bag and showing up at spawn times. Compare that to 40,000 Candy Corn for a Neon Patchy Bear or 72,000 for a Neon Spider Box pet that you cannot even choose. If you want a Neon Legendary from this event with minimum grinding, farm Kitty Bats every hour.

Final word

Halloween 2026 is kind to every kind of player. Free players get a genuine Neon Legendary path through the Kitty Bat. Grinders get clear savings targets in Skelebat and the Black Dog. Lucky players get the Spider Box chase with the Black Widow at the top.

Farm the free pets daily, save deliberately for exactly one big purchase, and keep an eye on weeks three and four before you spend your Candy Corn on furniture. Check our live value list as the event unfolds, because these early numbers will move.
