Grow a Garden Guide What Does Lich Crystal Do

The Lich Crystal is one of the most mysterious and powerful divine items ever added to Grow a Garden. Introduced during the Halloween Part 3 update on October 25, 2025, this limited gear plays a crucial role in summoning one of the strongest pets in the game — the Lich.

In this guide, we’ll break down everything you need to know about the Lich Crystal, from how it works to the exact ritual needed to unlock its true power. Also check out our Grow a Garden Codes & Grow a Garden Animals Tier list.

What is the Lich Crystal?

The Lich Crystal is a Divine-tier limited gear item that costs 60 Candy Corn or 499 Robux during the Halloween event. At first glance, it doesn’t seem to do anything — but that’s part of the mystery.

The crystal acts as a key to a dark summoning ritual that allows players to fuse three pets into the rare Lich pet. Because it’s a limited-time event item, it’s only available during the Halloween 2025 event, and once the event ends, it might not return.

How to Get the Lich Crystal

You can purchase the Lich Crystal during the Halloween Part 3 event in Grow a Garden. It can be found in the Ghoul Garden event shop, available for:

• 60 Candy Corn, earned from completing Halloween activities, or
• 499 Robux, as a direct purchase option.

Make sure to buy it before the event ends, as it’s a limited item and won’t stay permanently in the shop.

How the Lich Crystal Works

When first placed in your garden, the Lich Crystal doesn’t activate immediately. Instead, it displays a mysterious message: “The crystal hums faintly… perhaps a blind creature of the night could power the crystal.”

This message is your first clue. The crystal reacts to specific creatures and items, leading you through a ritual sequence that unlocks its true form.

Here’s how the process works:

1. Place a Bat Pet – The text changes to: “The crystal whispers… the crystal yearns for something clever — a dark winged carrion.”
2. Place a Crow Pet – The text updates to: “The crystal stirs… something ancient is missing — something of rebirth must crawl.”
3. Place a Scarab Pet – The message becomes: “The crystal murmurs in a language unknown… perhaps an ancient book of spells could decipher its secrets.”
4. Place the Spell Book Cosmetic – The crystal reacts again: “Flickers of embers are missing… the crystal yearns two candles to pierce the veil between the worlds.”
5. Place Two Halloween Candles – The final step triggers a pop-up confirmation, asking if you want to fuse the Crow, Bat, and Scarab. Confirming this fuses all three pets into a single powerful creature — the Lich Pet.

What You Get from the Ritual

Completing the ritual rewards you with the Lich Pet, a Divine-tier companion that grants major boosts to your Halloween garden progress. It enhances plant growth, boosts XP for spooky pets, and becomes one of the most valuable pets in the event. This fusion also consumes the Crow, Bat, and Scarab pets, so make sure you’re ready to part with them before confirming the ritual.

Tips for Using the Lich Crystal

• Collect all required pets early. Spooky pets may become harder to find once the event ends.
• Save extra copies of the Bat, Crow, and Scarab if you want to keep them for display or trading.
• Decorate your ritual area with candles and the Spell Book to make the experience more immersive.
• Don’t delete the Lich Crystal — even after summoning, it remains a rare collectible from the 2025 event.

The Lich Crystal is not just another event item — it’s a key to unlocking one of Grow a Garden’s most legendary pets. Its layered activation process and eerie lore make it one of the most creative event items in the game’s history. If you’re planning to complete your Halloween collection, get the Lich Crystal before the event ends, gather the required pets, and perform the ritual to summon your very own Lich — the ultimate dark guardian of your garden.
