The Pumpkin Scarecrow is a classic autumn-themed decoration that was added to Clash of Clans in October 2023. Featuring a traditional scarecrow body with a glowing jack-o'-lantern for a head, it serves as a quintessential marker of the harvest and Halloween season. This decoration was part of the Mashup Madness rewards, priced at 1025 medals, and is currently obtainable through Treasure Chests. The scarecrow is dressed in tattered rags and is mounted on a wooden cross-post, with crows occasionally seen circling or landing near it (though the animation is subtle). With a 2x2 size, it fits perfectly in 'farming' areas of a base, such as near the Elixir Collectors or Gold Mines, to ward off 'thieving' goblins. The glowing orange eyes of the pumpkin provide a nice contrast to the earthy tones of the straw and wood, making it visually pop at night. This item is particularly favored by players who enjoy 'traditional' Halloween decor rather than the more fantastical or horror-inspired pieces like the Friendly Clown. It represents the seasonal transition in the game and is often kept on the map long after the Halloween event ends to maintain a rustic, autumnal feel. For many, it is a reminder of the grind during the Mashup Madness event, where players had to collect Sour Elixir to unlock various rewards.
