The FischFright event of 2025 is underway in Fisch, bringing back the eerie excitement and exclusive rewards. This year, the event is set on a new island called Crook’s Hallow, where gamers can meet fresh NPCs with intriguing quests. A major highlight is the legendary Headless Horseman, who offers a series of exciting tasks. In this guide, you’ll discover how to navigate the Fish Headless Horseman quest to earn the coveted Jack-o-Blazer Rod.
How to Complete Headless Horseman Quests in the Fisch FischFright Update
The Headless Horseman is a key quest giver in the latest FischFright update. This thrilling event runs until November 1, 2025, giving you ample time to complete his questline and secure the exclusive rod.

The Headless Horseman’s questline is called Jack-o-Blazers, encompassing five exciting tasks:
1. Find a Frightful Jack-O-Lantern
Catching the Frightful Jack-o-Lantern near Crook’s Hallow requires a bit of patience, as its drop rate is quite low. Ensure you have the Frightful mutation in Fisch on the creature. To enhance your chances, either use the Frightful Relic to enchant your rod or catch the item first and then appraise it to obtain the Frightful Jack-o-Lantern.
2. Collect 5 Wisps

You can find Wisps randomly spawning around the graveyard near the Silas NPC, which is behind the Headless Horseman’s area. Follow the path beside the Headless Horseman to discover a large Nessie statue with gravestones encircling it. When one of the gravestones lights up in blue, approach it, press ‘E,’ and capture the Wisp.
3. Find a Haunted Candle
Search for the Haunted Candle tucked away in the Mansion, ensuring you complete the first two tasks first. This candle will have a dark appearance and can be found in various locations inside the mansion, specifically replacing the typical candles, so keep your eyes peeled!

4. Find a Blazed Handle

You can secure the Blazed Handle by contributing ingredients to the Witch’s Cauldron. Be vigilant for notifications regarding goblin spawns in the main world. Head to the same island, find the goblin, and interact with it. Complete the challenge, then submit your ingredient at the Witch’s Cauldron for random FischFright rewards, including the Burning Handle.
5. Collect 5000 Candy
Finding easier methods to gather Candy during the Fisch FischFright event includes trick-or-treating, completing NPC quests, submitting to the Witch’s Cauldron, and opening Frightful Crates. Make sure to check in with the Headless Horseman to track your progress effectively.
Upon completing all the tasks assigned by the Headless Horseman, the exclusive Jack-o-Blazer Rod will be yours!
Jack-O-Blazer Rod Stats in Fisch
The Jack-o-Blazer Rod stands as one of the rarest rods you can obtain in Fisch, available exclusively during the FischFright event. It features impressive base stats ideal for various fishing endeavors. Whether your goal is to catch large creatures or quickly earn some in-game currency, its Lure Speed, Control, and Resilience work well together. However, it’s essential to note that Luck is a weak point for this rod.
Here’s a quick overview of the Jack-o-Blazer Rod stats:
- Lure Speed: 96%
- Luck: 66.6%
- Control: 0.16
- Resilience: 66%
- Max Kg: infkg

This rod boasts two passive mutations. First, the Wicked mutation provides a 20% chance to multiply the fish value by 6.6x. Secondly, there’s a 2% chance of acquiring the Jack’s Curse mutation, which amplifies the value by 16.6x. With the right enchantments, the Jack-o-Blazer Rod can become your ultimate fishing companion.
Best Enchantments for Fisch Jack-O-Blazer Rod
The Jack-o-Blazer’s base stats are commendable, but its Luck isn’t optimal for catching high-value late-game fish. Therefore, consider using enchant relics or cosmic relics to enhance this rod’s performance.
You can choose Fisch Enchantments based on your requirements, but aiming for control and Luck-enhancing options is key. Here are some enchantments worth trying:
- Mystical: +25% Luck, +45% Resilience, +15% Lure Speed, and +10% Progress Speed
- Quality: +15% Luck, +5% Resilience, +15% Lure Speed, and +5% Progress Speed
- Immortal: +75% Luck and +30% Progress Speed
