Fear Mongerer

The Fear Mongerer is a Shop NPC located in the Village, next to the Bank. He spawns at the location of the Event Stand, replacing it with a giant pumpkin, and He appears for 1 hour before the Spooky Festival starts, stays through the event, and despawns one hour after the event ends. During the hour-long event, you 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 armour stand taken in the Fear Mongerer's place.
