I super love the Pumpkin Head costume. This is a really simple Halloween costume in Poptropica where you get a giant Jack-o-Lantern that you can wear on your head and a green and black pumpkin vine body suit. You can get it in the Poptropica Store and there are three different pumpkin head types to choose from on the costume card. It’s really the perfect way to say, “Happy Halloween” in Poptropica.
But the real reason I love this costume is that the Pumpkin Head was the very first secret I wrote about on this blog back when I started.
See, this wasn’t always a costume that you could buy in the store. It used to be that you had to know the special secret keyboard shortcut to get it. And guess what? That keyboard shortcut still works!
Just press CTRL + SHIFT + P (CMD + SHIFT + P on a Mac) and you’ll get a pumpkin head on your Poptropican. You don’t even need to buy the costume in the store to do this.
Update: OK, thank you to everyone in the comments section for helping me to solve this one. This isn’t a new costume at all but is an old one that came out last year. So you can buy it. You just need to scroll over a bit to the older costumes. It must have come out right after the Dare Devil one was released.
An oldie but a goodie. The Pumpkin Head Costume.
OK, so allegedly there’s a new Poptropica Pumpkin Head Gold Card available in the Poptropica Store. At least that’s what the official Poptropica blog claims. But I went into the store to try and find it today with two different characters and I can’t find it anywhere! Am I just missing something or is the Poptropica Pumpkin Head item not really there? The Poptropica Creators posted a screenshot of the card and it appears you can select three different styles for your Poptropica Pumpkin Head.
Of course, don’t forget that everyone can get a pumpkin head in Poptropica using the CTRL+SHIFT+P key on their keyboard, as detailed in one of the very first posts ever on this blog!
