Updated October 20, 2026 | United States
Adopt Me!’s Halloween event has moved into its third weekly update, but players should separate the confirmed in-game changes from claims about the October 17 Admin Abuse session. The official update notes confirm a new Carnival minigame, Stitches’ Spotlight, plus four featured pets and new seasonal items. They do not provide a complete, independently verifiable list of every reward distributed during Admin Abuse.
Quick answer: After the October 17 Admin Abuse event, the clearest confirmed change to focus on is the October 16 Halloween Week 3 update: Stitches’ Spotlight is available at the Carnival, Stitches costs 70,000 Candy Corn, Boohoo costs 32,000, Shoebill costs 18,000 after its guest-help quest, and Copycat costs 600 Robux. Treat any separate Admin Abuse reward list as unconfirmed unless it is backed by a dated official announcement or verifiable in-game evidence.
What changed in Adopt Me after Admin Abuse?
The most useful way to understand the current event is to look at the dated update notes rather than combine every Halloween reward into one list. Uplift Games published its Stitches’ Spotlight notes on October 16, 2026. Those notes describe the new Carnival activity and list the current pet prices. The update is a separate piece of content from any one-off Admin Abuse session.
The game’s official Adopt Me! Roblox page also highlights the Halloween activity. Players should check the live experience and official news feed for changes, because event content can be updated during the season.
Week 3 rewards: prices and unlock requirements
| Reward | What is confirmed | Player action |
|---|---|---|
| Stitches | Ultra Rare; 70,000 Candy Corn | Earn Candy Corn through event activities and purchase Stitches at the Carnival. |
| Boohoo | Rare; 32,000 Candy Corn | Check the Hotel’s forgotten luggage area. |
| Shoebill | Uncommon; 18,000 Candy Corn | Help the Hotel guests using the required items from the Crypt before adopting it. |
| Copycat | Legendary; 600 Robux | Find it in the Manor; it has a random Polymorph-style ability. |
How Stitches’ Spotlight works
In Stitches’ Spotlight, players collect Candy Corn around the edge of the circus tent while avoiding the moving spotlight. The official notes say players can use both upper and lower platforms, discover abilities that help them escape, and hide behind target boards. Those boards are temporary cover because Stitches can knock them down.
- Look at the spotlight before moving toward a Candy Corn cluster.
- Use the upper and lower platforms instead of repeatedly crossing an exposed area.
- Treat target boards as temporary cover, not a permanent safe zone.
- Keep an eye on your total and avoid risking a large haul for one last pickup.
What about the October 17 Admin Abuse rewards?
Admin Abuse is often discussed alongside a weekly update, but the two should not be treated as the same thing. The official October 16 notes verify the regular Week 3 content. They do not, by themselves, confirm a complete list of Admin Abuse gifts, quantities, or limited rewards distributed on October 17.
Before trading for an item because a post calls it an Admin Abuse exclusive, check the original post date, the account that published it, and whether the same reward appears in the official event notes. Cropped screenshots and reposted clips can lose important context. If an exact reward is not independently confirmed, the responsible answer is that it remains unverified.
What players should do now
- Open the official Adopt Me news feed and read the latest dated notes.
- Check the live game for the current Carnival, Hotel, and Manor activities.
- Decide which Candy Corn reward you want before spending currency across several pets.
- Do not trade valuable pets based only on an unverified Admin Abuse screenshot.
- Recheck the official announcements after a new weekly update, because reward availability can change.
The practical takeaway is simple: Week 3’s official content gives players a clear new minigame and four headline pets to plan around. The Admin Abuse conversation is a separate question; until a reliable dated source confirms each drop, avoid presenting rumors as fact.
