The RAID: Shadow Legends Pumpkin Hunt starts on Friday, October 23, 2026, and it hides 50 pumpkins across the game’s screens and a few places outside it. Open the event, tap its Hints button, and Harvest Jack gives a riddle for each pumpkin. Finding all 50 earns the Spooky Sleuth badge, and a third-party list says 45 pumpkins unlock every milestone reward. However, the event has not started yet, so every location below comes from a pre-launch list, and you should confirm each one in the game.
Summary: RAID Shadow Legends Pumpkin Hunt Locations
- Dates: starts October 23, 2026, and the end date is October 30 or 31 depending on the source.
- Pumpkins: 50 in total, some in plain sight and some behind conditions.
- Clues: Harvest Jack’s Hints button gives a riddle for each one, five pages of ten.
- Rewards: Ancient Shard, a Void Shard, an avatar, a frame, an XP Barrel and the Spooky Sleuth badge for all 50.
- Promo code: GETJACK gives new players Harvest Jack, and you do not need it for the hunt.
- Source of the list: a third-party tool built before launch, so treat it as unverified.
- Not confirmed: the end date, the exact reward milestones and the start time.
What the Pumpkin Hunt is
The Pumpkin Hunt is a scavenger hunt that belongs to RAID’s Festival of Frights, the game’s Halloween season. Harvest Jack, the pumpkin-headed Legendary Champion, has hidden 50 pumpkins on screens all over the game. When you see one, you tap it and it joins your count.
Plarium’s announcement says some pumpkins sit in plain sight and others only appear once you meet certain conditions. It also says a few pumpkins hide in places outside the game.
Event dates
The sources disagree on the end date, so here is the range:
| Source | Start | End |
|---|---|---|
| HellHades, from the announcement | Friday, October 23 | Friday, October 30 |
| RodolBot, a third-party tool | October 23 | October 31, with rewards claimable until November 1 |
| Festival of Frights (the wider season) | October 22 | November 6 |
The Festival of Frights covers the whole Halloween season, and the Pumpkin Hunt is one event inside it. I could not find a start time for the hunt, so check the in-game timer. Because the end date varies, finish the hunt by October 30 to be safe.
How to find the pumpkins
The method works the same way for every pumpkin:
- Open the Events screen and find the Pumpkin Hunt card.
- Tap Hints. Harvest Jack gives a riddle for each pumpkin, five pages of ten.
- Read the clue and pick the screen it describes. Jack’s clues are jokes, but they point at a menu.
- Open that screen and look for the pumpkin. Tap it when you see it.
- Check your count on the event card.
One example from the hint list shows the style. The clue for the Events window has Jack complaining that he is a murderous monster, not a poet, so the answer is simply the Events screen. Expect that kind of tone.
All 50 pumpkins by screen
A third-party tool, RodolBot, published a full list grouped into 12 stops that cost the fewest menu changes. It built the list before the event began, so it shows a placeholder where each pumpkin will appear. Use it as a checklist, then confirm each spot in your game.
| Stop | Screens (pumpkins) |
|---|---|
| Pumpkin Hunt and Events (2) | The Events window, and the Pumpkin Hunt info card |
| Bastion menus (5) | The hidden side menu with social links, Chat, Challenges (Pumpkin Hunt badge), the Referral Program, and Plarium Program Points |
| Quests (3) | The main Quests window, the Weekly tab and the Advanced tab |
| Shop and Bank (3) | The Bank’s Daily tab, its Limited tab, and the Academy store |
| Champions (6) | The Lore pages of Venalicia Thrallmother, Harvest Jack and Gaspard the Accused, any champion’s Masteries, an artifact upgrade screen, and a relic prize info card |
| Tavern (5) | The Level Up, Rank Up, Ascend and Skill Level Up tabs, plus the potion mixer |
| Portal (2) | The Ancient Shards screen and the Primal Shard bonus |
| Bastion buildings (5) | The Gem Mine, the Forge’s multi craft, the Great Hall’s Arena bonuses, the Academy’s Training Camp, and the Guardian Ring’s Undead Hordes |
| Battle screens (9) | The Grim Forest card, the Arcane Keep, Spider’s Den and Ice Golem’s Peak dungeons, Iron Twins Fortress and its Soul Stones, Faction Wars, the Classic Arena league, and the Tag Arena Bazaar |
| Clan (3) | The Clan info, the Clan Shop and the Chimera competition |
| Battle results (3) | A dungeon victory, one Classic Arena battle and one Demon Lord fight |
| Outside the game (4) | Plarium Play, the RAID web store, the promo code page and the Plarium account page |
The list adds up to 50. By my count, about 18 of them depend on something extra, and here is what each needs:
- A building you must own: the Academy, the Great Hall, the Guardian Ring and Iron Twins Fortress.
- A mode you must have unlocked: Tag Arena.
- A clan: the Clan info, Clan Shop and Chimera screens.
- A resource: Energy for a dungeon, one Arena Token for a Classic Arena fight and one Clan Boss key for the Demon Lord.
- Plarium Program membership: for the Program Points pumpkin.
- A trip outside the game: four pumpkins sit on Plarium’s websites and the Plarium Play launcher.
The web pumpkins are the ones most players miss. According to the list, you open Plarium Play, log in at store.raidshadowlegends.com, and visit redeem.raidshadowlegends.com. I could not confirm whether the promo code pumpkin needs a successful redemption, or only a visit.
Pumpkin Hunt rewards
Plarium’s announced rewards are an Ancient Shard, an exclusive avatar, an exclusive avatar frame and an XP Barrel, plus the Spooky Sleuth badge for finding all 50. The same third-party tool lists a fuller milestone table:
| Pumpkins found | Reward |
|---|---|
| 3 | Ancient Shard |
| 6 | Pumpkin Hunt avatar |
| 10 | XP Barrel |
| 15 | Rank 5 Chicken |
| 20 | Pumpkin Hunt avatar frame |
| 30 | Void Shard |
| 45 | Legendary Skill Tome |
| 50 | Spooky Sleuth badge |
Another guide agrees that you need at least 45 pumpkins to claim every milestone reward. The Void Shard and the Legendary Skill Tome do not appear in Plarium’s own summary, so check the reward tracker once the event opens before you count on them.
The GETJACK promo code
GETJACK is RAID’s new-player promo code for Harvest Jack. According to RAID’s promo code page, it gives:
- Harvest Jack, a Legendary Spirit Champion built around True Fear
- 15 Spirit XP Brews
- 15 Greater Spirit Potions
- 300,000 Silver
The page lists a valid-until date of September 30, 2027, and it describes the code as a new-player offer. Existing accounts should not expect it to work, and you do not need it for the hunt. You can still open Harvest Jack’s Lore page in the Champion Index without owning him.
Tips and common mistakes
Do not trust the list blindly. It was built before launch, so spot-check three or four pumpkins first.
Do not skip the web pumpkins. Four of them sit outside the game, and they block the 50-pumpkin badge.
Do not wait for the last day. The end date is October 30 or 31.
Do not burn resources early. The dungeon, Arena and Demon Lord pumpkins cost Energy, a token and a key, so pick the right moment.
Do not assume every pumpkin is free. About 18 need a building, a clan, a resource or a website.
If you also play mobile Halloween events, our Diablo Immortal Headless Pyre guide covers another limited-time event with cosmetics and farming tips.
What could change
Plarium can change the hunt’s end date, rewards or pumpkin spots when it goes live. Everything here is accurate as of October 22, 2026, based on Plarium’s announcement as reported by HellHades and a third-party list I could not test in the game. Check the in-game Hints page and the reward tracker on October 23.
Conclusion
The Pumpkin Hunt hides 50 pumpkins across RAID’s menus and four outside websites, and Harvest Jack’s Hints button gives a riddle for each one. Use the screen-by-screen list as a checklist, collect 45 for every milestone and all 50 for the Spooky Sleuth badge. Verify the locations once the event opens, because nobody has confirmed them in the live game yet.
