Ghost Gallery is the main Halloween 2026 minigame in Adopt Me, played inside the Manor on Adoption Island. You zap haunted objects and ghosts with a Ghost Blaster, then team up to beat a boss. Winning gives you Candy Corn and a Rusty Key, which opens the Crypt where the free Rare Mummy Spider waits. I checked the official patch notes and top guides to put this together.

How to Start the Ghost Gallery Minigame?

  1. Go to the Halloween area near the Nursery. Signposts point to the Manor, Carnival and Hotel.
  2. Take the Manor path, cross the red bridge and climb the stairs up the hill.
  3. Enter the big house and stand in the circle to join the queue.

Shortcut: a pop-up appears when a round is about to begin. Tap Yes and you’ll teleport straight into the queue.

How to Play Ghost Gallery?

You spawn with a Ghost Blaster (click M1 to shoot). Ghosts fly into furniture and possess it. Your pet sniffs out the haunted object, which then highlights and shakes. Blast it to free the ghost, then keep shooting until the ghost’s HP hits zero.

After enough ghosts, the boss appears. Its health bar has four sections, and it breaks into three smaller ghosts each time you drain one. The round is server-wide, so everyone works together.

Ghosts and the boss can’t hurt you, but their attacks knock you back. I recommend dodging them, since lost time means fewer kills and less Candy Corn.

Ghost Gallery Rewards

Candy Corn scales with the ghosts you defeat and the damage you deal to the boss. Beating the boss also gives you one Rusty Key.

Rusty Keys, Crypt and Mummy Spider

The Crypt sits on the right side, below the hill with the Manor. Each Rusty Key unlocks one tomb. A tomb gives either 1,000 Candy Corn, a Twig, or a path down to the next level.

How to Get Rusty Keys

  • 1 key: defeat the Ghost Gallery boss.
  • 4 keys: finish daily tasks on the task board (purple pumpkin tab). They include playing the minigame and meeting your pet’s needs.

How to Get the Mummy Spider?

Go through 4 Crypt levels and the Rare Mummy Spider is yours for free. Claim every Twig and Candy Corn before adopting it. The Crypt resets once you adopt the spider.

Jacobin Pigeon and Orbweaver Glider

Collect 8 Twigs and place them in the nest inside the Haunted Hotel. Then adopt the Common Jacobin Pigeon for 4,000 Candy Corn. The Nest Stroller costs 11,000 Candy Corn. The Ultra Rare Orbweaver Glider, sold near the Crypt, costs 59,000 Candy Corn.

Pro Tips and Common Mistakes

  • Do daily tasks first. They’re your only source of the extra 4 keys.
  • Focus on boss damage. It raises your Candy Corn payout, so don’t just spectate.
  • Let your pet sniff. It finds haunted objects faster than you can on your own.
  • Common mistake: adopting the Mummy Spider before spending leftover keys, which wastes a Crypt run.
  • Heads-up: the wiki calls these Crypt Keys, but the official notes say Rusty Keys. They’re the same item.
