Journal

The following text is transcribed from the Journal.

They seem strange without faces, don't they? Heralds of the spookiest of seasons, the humble pumpkin exists in two worlds, the world of the living and that of the dead. When carved, it acts as a warden against dangerous spirits and when mixed with spices and added to warm drinks, it acts as a lure for ex-girlfriends, distracting them as it gives you time to escape.

Trivia

  • In 2001, during the Hallowe'en event, pumpkins were dropped in the main RuneScape game. Since then, they have not been re-released in the main game and exist in a finite amount.
    • In Old School RuneScape, this item has been released again in 2013. They can be obtained during the Hallowe'en holiday events.
  • In the journal entry, it is specified that pumpkins (when mixed with spices and added to warm drinks) can be used to distract ex-girlfriends. This is a reference to the pumpkin spice latte typically made in the fall season.
