The Halloween update has finally arrived in 99 Nights in the Forest, bringing spooky decorations, new NPCs, and a special in-game currency – Candies.
These Candies can be exchanged at the Halloween Shop for unique items, furniture, and even new classes.
Whether you want to unlock the Trick or Treater class or decorate your camp with Halloween furniture, you’ll first need to stock up on plenty of Candies.
Here’s a complete guide on how to get Candies fast in 99 Nights in the Forest and what you can buy with them.
What Are Candies Used For?
Candies are the main currency of the Halloween event in 99 Nights in the Forest.
You can use them at the Halloween Shop, which is located in the main lobby. The shop can be accessed by interacting with the NPC “Happy the Halloween Guy”.
Inside the shop, you’ll find exclusive Halloween-themed items such as spooky furniture, pet skins, and limited-time classes.
How to Get Candies in 99 Nights in the Forest
There are several reliable methods to collect Candies during the Halloween update.
Some are quick and easy, while others take a bit more effort, but all are worth it if you want to grab everything from the shop before the event ends.
1. Trick or Treating (Main Method)
The best way to earn Candies is by Trick or Treating at NPC houses during night rounds.
Here’s how it works:
-
First, collect Halloween Candles by defeating Cultists or opening Chests.
-
Use one Candle to light up an NPC house when it appears in the forest.
-
Once the house glows, knock on the door to Trick or Treat.
When you do this, an NPC will appear and give you Candies as a reward. Sometimes, they might “trick” you – like turning you into a frog or attaching a ball and chain – but you’ll still get Candies either way.
You can Trick or Treat at multiple houses every night, so make sure to carry enough Candles for several rounds.
2. Finding Candies in the Lobby
Before starting your game, take a moment to look around the main lobby area.
Candies occasionally spawn in random spots such as:
-
Behind the Scarecrow NPC
-
Near the Update Board
-
Around the edges of the map or decorations
These free Candies can be collected instantly and are an easy way to top up your balance.
The spawn rate seems random, but checking after every match increases your chances.
3. Talking to Happy the Halloween Guy
You can earn three free Candies just by talking to Happy the Halloween Guy in the lobby.
This is a one-time reward, but here’s the correct dialogue order to unlock it:
-
I have a question.
-
Who are you?
-
How do you stay so happy?
-
Way too deep, man. Can I have some candy?
After following this dialogue, Happy will reward you with three Candies instantly.
4. Redeem Halloween Codes
The developers occasionally release Halloween event codes that can grant you bonus Candies.
Keep an eye on the official 99 Nights in the Forest Discord or Twitter page for new code drops.
These limited-time codes often expire quickly, so redeem them as soon as they’re posted.
To redeem a code:
-
Go to the main menu
-
Click on the “Codes” option
-
Enter the code exactly as shown and press Redeem

Farm Candles during the day by defeating Cultists.
-
Use all your Candles at night to Trick or Treat at as many houses as possible.
-
Between rounds, search the lobby for free Candy spawns.
-
