Goodie Bag

The Goodie Bag is a grab bag-type item available during the Halloween seasonal event (October 20th - November 1st). Each contains one random reward from the list below. Goodie Bags are opened by right-clicking them from within the player's inventory, similar to Presents, Crates, Treasure Bags, Herb Bags, and Golden Lock Boxes. They are dropped by any enemy except statue-spawned enemies and Meteor Heads, with a 1/80 (1.25%) chance, during Halloween only.

Most Goodie Bag rewards are vanity item sets (56%) or Rotten Eggs (25%), with occasional paintings (7%). Rarely, the bags can include a Bat Hook or Unlucky Yarn. Costumes are mostly two or three pieces received together, and sell for per piece. However, Cat Ears do come alone (and are not connected with the three-piece Cat costume). The paintings sell for each.

Tips

 * A good way to quickly acquire a large sum of Goodie Bags is to spawn a Goblin Invasion or other events such as Slime Rain.


 * Another way is to find an area with lots of enemies and use a Water Candle and a Battle Potion.

Trivia

 * Many of the vanity sets are references to popular culture. The Creeper set is in reference to the sandbox game Minecraft, the Space Creature set is in reference to the Xenomorph creatures from the film Alien, the Karate Tortoise is a play on words in reference to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the Leprechaun set is a reference to reports of a leprechaun sighting in Mobile, Alabama, Reddit post by Redigit, Remix of the report that Redigit looped while coding, and the Bride of Frankenstein is referencing the film The Bride of Frankenstein.
 * The "Jacking Skeletron" painting is a reference to The Nightmare Before Christmas, in which the main character is Jack Skellington. The scene depicted in the painting is of Skeletron at an iconic location from the movie.
