Fear Mongerer

The Fear Mongerer is a Shop NPC located in the Village, next to the Bank. They spawn at the Event Stand, replacing it with a giant pumpkin. They appear an hour before the Spooky Festival starts, and despawn an hour after the event ends. During the hour-long event, one can collect candies to trade with the Fear Mongerer for various items, such as upgraded enchanted books and accessories.

Trivia

 * There was a glitch, when someone was standing on the spot where the Fear Mongerer spawns (not during the spooky event), you were able to access the shop. This was supposedly patched but has been accessed during times other than during the spooky event. This glitch works with an armor stand taken in the Fear Mongerer's place.
 * When using an Abiphone to call them, the shop can be accessed even if not during Spooky Festival, however it is only allowed in nighttime.
