The Ghoul Garden 2 update in Grow a Garden brings not only new features and quests but also a variety of spooky-themed pets, each with their own unique abilities and passives. These pets can boost your farming performance, help you during events, and even interact with other players in fun ways. Here’s a full breakdown of all the new pets introduced in this update and what they do.
1. Hex Serpent (Divine) – Witchcraft
This is one of the most powerful pets in the Ghoul Garden 2 update. The Hex Serpent lets you plant single-harvest plants in a Hex Circle cosmetic. Occasionally, it will perform a ritual that consumes the plants in the circle and grants random rewards. The better and rarer your plants, the greater the rewards you’ll receive. This pet is perfect for players who want to maximize yield and collect high-tier items.
2. Crow (Common) – Spooky Crow
Simple yet effective, the Crow increases the growth speed of nearby Spooky-type plants. It’s a great beginner pet if you’re farming during the Halloween or Ghoul Garden events since it passively speeds up production without needing any setup or activation.
3. Ghostly Dark Spriggan (Mythical) – Ghostly Overgrowth
The Ghostly Dark Spriggan spreads its roots occasionally, affecting all nearby fruits. When it activates, these fruits have a chance to mutate into Blight or even the rarer Necrotic type. This makes it one of the best pets for players focused on fruit farming or mutation-based crops.
4. Dark Spriggan (Mythical) – Dark Overgrowth
Similar to the Ghostly version but slightly less powerful, the Dark Spriggan also spreads its roots to nearby fruits, but it can only trigger Blight mutations. Still, this pet is useful if you want steady mutation farming without relying on luck or higher-tier pets.
5. Goblin (Rare) – Looter
The Goblin brings a fun twist to gameplay. It will occasionally go to another random player, pick them up, and carry them back to you. The player can jump to escape. While not directly useful for farming, it adds a comical and social touch to the game, making multiplayer sessions more entertaining.
6. Goat (Uncommon) – Ram
The Goat occasionally charges at a random player, knocking and launching them away. This pet doesn’t provide farming benefits, but it’s perfect for players who enjoy a bit of chaos and want to mess around during events.
7. Lich (Divine) – Unknown
Currently, the Lich’s passive ability hasn’t been revealed. However, given its Divine rarity, it’s expected to have a powerful effect related to either death-based mutations or exclusive event bonuses. Keep an eye out for upcoming updates to see what this mysterious pet will do.
The Ghoul Garden 2 update adds a fun mix of functional and playful pets that suit different playstyles — from serious farmers using the Hex Serpent to casual players having fun with the Goblin or Goat. Whether you’re optimizing growth rates or just exploring the event, these new pets bring more depth and personality to your garden. Each pet’s unique ability ties into the Halloween theme perfectly, making this one of the most creative updates yet for Grow a Garden.
