The Halloween Spirit Fishing loop in Fish It goes from Igor's experiment to the new Forgotten fish: recover the missing experiment pieces, equip the Spirit Lantern while fishing for a chance at spirits, then sacrifice them to power Igor's Resurrection Machine. The Forgotten becomes catchable while the machine is active.
How to unlock and use the Spirit Lantern
Help Igor recover the missing pieces of his experiment to unlock the lantern. Once you have it, equip it while fishing. A catch can reveal a spirit, but it isn't guaranteed, and the update doesn't give a reveal rate.
What Wandering, Restless, and Vengeful Spirits do
Bring Wandering, Restless, and Vengeful Spirits to Igor's Resurrection Machine and sacrifice them to power it.
What the Resurrection Machine unlocks
While the Resurrection Machine is active, the new Forgotten fish becomes catchable. The lantern gives you a chance to collect the spirits that power it, connecting ordinary fishing to the update's new fish.
The update doesn't give a spirit count, an active timer, or a catch location or gear requirement. It confirms that the machine must be active, so that's the condition to watch for.
