Once you find the Celebrator NPC in your world, use the “Ask for Sugar Skull” interaction for a chance to receive one of nine skulls. You may have to chit chat a bit before they hand one over, but eventually they will cave to your demands!

Day of the Dead celebrators will roam all areas of your neighborhood wearing Day of the Dead attire. Click to interact and get your skull!
