Twigs look small, but they matter in the Adopt Me Halloween event. Many players open their first grave, see a stick, and wonder what to do with it. We have the answer. Twigs lead to the Common Jacobin Pigeon, one of the cheaper pets in this year’s lineup. In this guide, we explain what twigs do, where they come from, and how we would plan the grind. The event runs from October 3 to October 31, 2026, so you still have time.
What Are Twigs in Adopt Me?
Twigs are a Halloween event item. You find them inside graves in the Crypt, a spooky area below the hill near the Manor. Each grave gives either Candy Corn or one twig. As far as we can tell, twigs have one job. They build the nest for the Jacobin Pigeon.
You cannot spend twigs in shops, and they will not buy furniture or toys. So we treat them as a goal item, not a currency. Open graves, keep every twig, and do not waste time hunting for other uses.
Where to Find the Crypt in Adopt Me
Head to Adoption Island and follow the Halloween signs. Look for the big haunted Manor on top of a hill, with ghosts floating around it. The Crypt sits on the right side, below that hill.
Inside, you will see four levels of locked graves. A board on the wall shows which rewards each grave can hold. Every grave needs one Crypt Key. Your inventory calls them Crypt Keys, but the update notes call them Rusty Keys. They are the same item.
How to Use Twigs to Get the Jacobin Pigeon
First, collect 8 twigs. Then walk to the Haunted Hotel near the Nursery. Bright signs point the way. Inside, find the nesting area and place all 8 twigs there. The nest will not work with fewer.
Once the pigeon settles on the nest, you can adopt it for 4,000 Candy Corn. Placing the twigs does not hand you the pet for free. Many players miss this and spend their Candy Corn on other items first. We suggest you keep 4,000 saved before you finish the nest.
Here is the full route at a glance:
- Open graves in the Crypt until you hold 8 twigs.
- Follow the signs from the Nursery to the Haunted Hotel.
- Place all 8 twigs in the nest.
- Wait for the Jacobin Pigeon, then adopt it for 4,000 Candy Corn.
How to Get More Twigs in Adopt Me
Twig drops are random. No pattern exists, and no number of keys guarantees one. So the real question is how to get more Crypt Keys. Each grave costs one key, which means 8 twigs need at least 8 keys. Most players will need more.
Keys come from a few places:
- Finish the daily Halloween tasks for 4 Crypt Keys.
- Defeat the Ghost Gallery boss for 1 key each time.
- Reset the Crypt through the Mummy Spider for a fresh run.
To find the tasks, tap the event icon on the left of your screen. Then open the purple tab with the little pumpkin. The tasks change daily. Some ask you to meet your pets’ needs, and others ask you to play the minigame.
Our biggest tip involves the Mummy Spider. It waits in a silky nest at the bottom of the Crypt, and you can adopt it for free. After you take it, the whole Crypt resets, and every grave locks again. That gives you a new chance at twigs.
So we always open every grave we can reach before we adopt the spider. Then we take the spider, let the Crypt reset, and run it again. This order saves you from leaving rewards behind.
Also remember that Crypt Keys cannot be traded. They disappear when the event ends. Spend them every day instead of hoarding them. Unused keys help nobody on October 31.
Plan Your Candy Corn Around the Pigeon
Twigs only solve half of the Pigeon problem. You still need 4,000 Candy Corn. The good news is that graves without twigs pay 1,000 to 2,000 Candy Corn. So you never waste a key.
The Ghost Gallery is your main Candy Corn source. Your score decides your payout, and a round can pay up to 5,000 Candy Corn. Stay near other players, zap ghosts quickly, and work together on the big boss. Your pets can also help sniff out ghosts.
Budget matters here. The Jumpscare pet costs 40,000 Candy Corn at the Manor. Add the Pigeon, and you need 44,000 in total. The Nest Stroller also uses the Hotel nest and costs 11,000 Candy Corn. We recommend you finish the pigeon first, then decide on the stroller.

Final Thoughts on Adopt Me Twigs
Twigs give a simple goal to your Crypt runs. Collect 8, build the nest, and pay 4,000 Candy Corn for the pigeon. We think the smartest plan is to spend your keys every day. Clear the Crypt, take the spider, and repeat while the event lasts.
Start early, play the Ghost Gallery with a team, and keep your Candy Corn ready. If we stay consistent, the Jacobin Pigeon is well within reach before Halloween ends.
