{{NL}}, Jack reprises his role from previous games. From October 1st to the 8th, Jack will roam around the town until spoken to. Once interacted with, he will ask the player if they want to be his servant. During this time, no other [[special characters]] except [[Joan]] will appear. The player also will not be allowed to work at [[The Roost]]. On Halloween, Jack is far easier to identify than in previous games: although he chases the player like costumed villagers, the villagers' costumes are noticeably different from his. He describes [[candy]] and lollipops as his favorite treats, and gives out [[Creepy set|creepy objects]] and [[Spooky series|spooky furniture]], the latter of which is purchasable at stores. When the player gives him lollipops, he will always reward them with a creepy object, though there is a small chance of still receiving them while giving him candy. However, if the player doesn't give him candy, he pulls a trick on them, which includes taking their items, and giving them patched clothing.

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Jack’s role is mostly similar to his role in the previous game. At the beginningfggtime the player gives him candy.

Jack O'Lanterns, Jack-in-the-Boxes, and Ragged Shirts are arguably considered part of the Spooky Series. There is also a Spooky Shirt, which is not given to the player by Jack, but by Gracie or Wisp.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Jack will give the player these in exchange for candy and lollipops. Jack will not give the player any other Halloween themed items or recipes, as the villagers will give them to the player in exchange for candy on Halloween if they were not purchased from Nook’s Cranny or obtained previously.

Profile Jack only comes around at Halloween, but, is he ever popular! Everyone in town dresses up like him, trying to imitate his very scary style. If you can find the real pumpkin deal, give him a sweet treat. Chances are, he'll give you a creepy something in return.

Trivia

  • He shares his birthday, October 31st, with Shino and Label. The only difference is that he and Jingle are the only event host special characters where the only day they appear is also their birthdays.
  • His Japanese name, Pumpking, reflects his self-given title, which is a portmanteau of "Pumpkin" and "King."
  • Many pumpkin characters are named "Jack" through the traditional pumpkin name "Jack O'Lantern". The name comes from an Irish folktale about a man named Stingy Jack.[3]
  • Jack's name could derive from the character Jack Pumpkinhead from the Oz Fantasy novels, a character with a pumpkin for a head very much like the character in this game.
  • Certain dialect found within Jack's dialogue may suggest a nod to the character Jack Skellington from Tim Burton's The Nightmare before Christmas, who similarly proclaims himself to be "King of Halloween", though Animal Crossing's Jack proclaims himself to be a Czar.
    • It is possible that Jack referring to himself as a Czar rather than a King was intentional, so as not to cause conflicts between Disney and Nintendo.
  • One easy way to find Jack is to dig holes in front of everyone's house before 6:00 PM so they can't get to the player, or by wearing a matching outfit. This is not required in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
  • Jack, Wisp, Farley, and Lloid are the only non-animal characters in the game.
  • He is featured on the cover of K.K. Dirge.
  • The townsfolk villagers will instantaneously approach the player when trying to obtain candy when they are closer to them. This action is absent when nearing Jack. Seeing if a character comes towards the player when they stand somewhat close to them is a good test to see if they have found the true Halloween king. This method cannot be used in Animal Crossing: New Leaf.
  • In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, when the player accepts Jack's invitation to become a loyal servant at scaring villagers, he hints that all Halloween-based masks cost exactly 1,031 bells. He then remarks about how he likes October 31.
  • Jack was seen in a Nintendo Direct as a character to be released in Animal Crossing: New Horizons future updates along with Pavé, Jingle, and Franklin.
  • In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, if a player uses the haunt or scare reaction on Jack, he will respond by laughing.
  • In Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, Jack says that below his mask, he only has a few teeth, the rest rotted from too much candy.
  • Being inspired by Jack O'Lantern, his origin story may have been similar, being a human who lost his soul... (although this is just a theory and nothing has been confirmed by Nintendo)
