Scarecrow Building

Seasonal Challenge: Build A Scarecrow!

Introduced on Thursday 11th October 2012

How It Works



After you have a stick in your Garden, your task is to then build your Scarecrow by finding a Head, a Hat, a Shirt and some Legs for it. That's 4 different items in all.

These items are dropped by the Halloween Seasonal Wildlife (Bats, Cats, and Ghostly Wildlife).
Every 5th spotted of each type will drop an item for you. See below for full details!

You can discard also discard parts of unfinished scarecrows to try and get the look you want! If you build a Witch Scarecrow, you can attract Zombie Mice and Mallards to your garden as long as witches are flying in your garden.

Have fun!

Scarecrows can be sent to your storage area. The 'Send To Storage' option is available on any Scarecrow whether it is finished or not!!


Clicking on any of the individual Wildlife names which are shown in Green will take you to the relevant Sprinkling List.

Head

A Head will be dropped when you spot every 5th Ghostly Field Mouse
(provided you have a Scarecrow in your garden who needs one!)

Hat

A Hat will be dropped when you spot every 5th Bat or Ghostly Pygmy Mouse
(provided you have a Scarecrow in your garden that needs one!)

A Witch Hat will be dropped randomly with the other hats as above but every 5th
Zombie Field Mouse or Zombie Pygmy Mouse you spot is automatically a Witch Hat.

Pair of Legs

A Pair of Legs will be dropped when you spot every 5th Ghostly Mallard
(provided you have a Scarecrow in your garden that needs one!)

A Witch Skirt will be dropped randomly with the other legs as above but every 5th
Zombie Mallard you spot is automatically a Witch Skirt.

Shirt

A Shirt will be dropped when you spot every 5th Black Cat or Ghostly White Mouse
(provided you have a Scarecrow in your garden that needs one!)

A Witch Shirt will be dropped randomly with the other shirts as above but every 5th
Zombie White Mouse you spot is automatically a Witch Shirt.

Finishing your Scarecrow

Finishing Your Scarecrow

Congratulations - your Scarecrow is almost complete!

But it's missing just one thing before it will be any use for scaring crows away - a scary face!

All you need to do now is leave some Bird Mix out in your Garden, and then wait...

Until you attract a Crow !!

The Crow noticed that there was a person made of straw in this garden, but it seemed to be missing something - a face!

And so the Crow decided to carve one for it...

However the face turned out to be so scary, that the poor Crow scared itself away again! (And that's how the straw person came to be known as a Scarecrow.)

Scary Face

A Scary Face will be carved when you attract a Crow
(provided you have a Scarecrow in your garden who needs one!)

Special Effects

Leaves on the Ground

Once a Crow has carved a face into your Scarecrow you will get a scattering of leaves on the ground.

Leaves Blowing in the Wind

Add a Ready For Harvest Ventus Quatriflorus planted in an Old Boot and watch the wind gently blow your leaves around your garden!

Flying Bat

Leave your completed Scarecrow in your garden on Halloween and you will get a flying bat in your background effects!
