How to Get the Ghost Fish in Steal an Egg – Drop Rate, Minigame Tips and Requirements

The Halloween Dimension in Steal an Egg hides plenty of surprises. Most players chase Candy Corn and the Phantom Express. Far fewer talk about the ghost fish, and that makes it the rarest catch of the whole event. We broke down how it works, what it takes, and whether the grind pays off.

What Is the Ghost Fish in Steal an Egg?

The ghost fish is an eternal pet that you catch by fishing in the Halloween Dimension. Eternal sits near the top of the rarity ladder, so this pet stands well above the usual event rewards. You do not steal it from a biome egg. You hook it from the water instead. That sets it apart from the 18 biome pets in the dimension. It also explains why so few players own one right now.

What You Need Before You Start Fishing

You cannot walk up to the water and cast right away. The dimension has an entry gate, and the rod comes from a quest. We suggest you finish each step in order, so you avoid wasted trips.

• At least 2.5 million Speed to pass through the portal beside the Trails Shop.
• Echo’s Memories quest finished, with all four lost items returned.
• The Haunted Rod, which the Ghost Fisherman gives you at the pier.

If you still hunt for the quest items, we already mapped every spot. Check our guide to the Dog’s lost things locations and all 4 items for Echo’s Memories quest before you return here. That same quest hands you the rod, so no shortcut exists.

How to Get Ghost Fish in Steal an Egg

The method is simple, but luck decides the result. You fish with the Haunted Rod in any water inside the Halloween Dimension. No special spot exists for the ghost fish. Some players cast at the pier in the Haunted Swamp, while others try different shores. Both work. Here is the basic routine.

• Enter the Halloween Dimension and equip the Haunted Rod.
• Walk to any water, such as the swamp pier.
• Cast the rod and wait for a bite.
• Keep casting until the sea mine minigame starts.

Every successful catch can pay 20 to 40 Candy Corn, so no cast goes to waste. That income also feeds your plan for the Halloween Dimension Egg, which costs 2,250 Candy Corn. We see that as the best reason to stay patient. You earn currency while you chase the rare drop.

How to Beat the Sea Mine Minigame

A strange pull drags you underwater when the minigame begins. You glide forward along a fixed path, and sea mines float into your way. Hold A or D on PC to steer left or right. We have not confirmed the exact controls for tablets, so expect touch steering on mobile.

You get three lives, so one or two mistakes will not end the run. Reach the end of the path and grab the fish. That fish is your ghost fish. The run is short, so stay calm and read the mines early. Small, steady taps usually beat long holds, because big swings push you straight into the next mine.

Players who finished the Phantom Express ticket run will recognize this minigame. It uses the same mine-dodging idea, which makes the ticket run good practice.

How Rare Is the Ghost Fish?

Community reports put the drop chance at 0.1 percent per catch. That means one ghost fish per 1,000 catches on average. The developers have not shared an official number, so treat this figure as an estimate.

Average does not mean guaranteed. One player might land it in 50 casts, while another needs 2,000. One can even get two copies, which shows how wildly luck can swing. Each roll stands alone, so a long dry streak never raises your next chance.

Here is a useful way to view the grind. If 1,000 catches pay 20 to 40 Candy Corn each, you collect roughly 20,000 to 40,000 Candy Corn along the way. That covers about 9 to 18 Halloween Dimension Eggs. Even with bad luck, you leave with real progress.

Tips to Fish Smarter

Fishing feels slow, so we recommend you build a routine that rewards you either way. A few small habits make a big difference over long sessions.

• Fish during a Blood Moon, because it doubles Candy Corn rewards.
• Keep the Haunted Rod in its own hotbar slot, so egg swaps never replace it.
• Pause for the Pumpkin Collection Event, since first place pays 1,000 Candy Corn.

Watch the clock as well. The first Halloween event window closes on October 24, and Halloween Part 2 opens right after. Roblox listed those dates, but features can change. Check the in-game banner to see what stays open, and start early instead of waiting.

Is the Ghost Fish Worth the Grind?

For collectors, yes. An eternal pet gives you bragging rights that most players cannot match this season. For casual players, the cost stays low, because the Candy Corn offsets your time. We would not spend Robux on this chase. No purchase raises the odds, and fishing stays free.

Be careful with videos or sites that promise a guaranteed ghost fish. No method boosts the drop rate. Never share your password or pay Robux outside the game for a shortcut.

Final Thoughts

The ghost fish rewards patience more than skill. You need the Speed, the quest, and the rod first. After that, you cast, dodge a few mines, and hope the odds fall your way. We think the steady Candy Corn income makes the wait worthwhile. Keep fishing, steer carefully, and your first ghost fish could land sooner than you expect.
