One of the most challenging characters to unlock in Disney Dreamlight Valley is Jack Skellington. While most villagers have realms or special questlines attached to them, Jack is all about finding mysterious dolls that power a treehouse for him. You even need to meet him to unlock Sally later.
Jack Skellington's introductory quest isn't even particularly difficult. Instead, it can feel frustrating if you fall into a certain category of unlucky players who struggle to find small objects. There are a few steps to get through, so let's get started.

How to unlock Jack Skellington in Disney Dreamlight Valley
Jack is unlocked by completing a quest called "Something Comes A'Knocking." You can start the mission after meeting the following requirements:
After you've completed "Miracles Take Time," a mysterious tree will emerge in the Forgotten Lands that has a pumpkin carved on it. It's a familiar tree for any fan of Nightmare Before Christmas, and this is the beginning of your efforts to unlock Jack. Sadly, you don't actually get to visit Pumpkin Town.
How to find the Matryoshka Dolls in Disney Dreamlight Valley
Before you meet Jack for the first time, you'll need to find four Matryoshka Dolls. They're all different sizes, from a big one down to a tiny version. They can spawn anywhere in the village, including in the Forgotten Lands, so you'll need to keep an eye out for them while you go about your duties. They'll be surrounded by the same golden glitter effect as any other quest item.
Matryoshka Doll spawns are completely random. Even if you search YouTube videos or ask a friend where they found theirs, it won't help much, as you'll likely have entirely different spawn locations. Nonetheless, you can use the image above to gauge what they look like and get an idea of what to look for.
If you've been wandering around your Valley for hours looking for your last Matryoshka Dolls, I recommend opening your furniture menu and moving around your items. Odds are, a doll is hiding under one of your furniture items, especially if you have a very decorated Valley.
Your decorations could be hiding the Dolls, and going into the furniture menu allows you to move items around to see beneath them. Moving around this way is also much quicker than physically running around to locate the Dolls, especially since their glow can appear as your camera pans over them if you're within range.
What to do with the Matryoshka Dolls in Disney Dreamlight Valley
When you've eventually gathered up all four differently-sized Dolls, go back to the Forgotten Lands and make your way to the pumpkin tree. You'll be able to place all four of the Dolls in front of the tree one by one, which will cause Jack to appear. You'll also get to keep the Dolls, and they make for cute decorations.
All that's left to do from there is to build Jack's house. It's a shrunken-down version of his house from the film and costs 5,000 Star Coins to build. With that done, Jack will be moving in and making himself at home in no time. Just don't leave him in charge of presents at Christmas.

Star Path events in Disney Dreamlight Valley are full of riddles for you to solve in exchange for redeeming reward tokens. One difficult example is giving a clumsy villager his favorites. Who is this mysterious clumsy villager, and what are the favorites the task is referring to?
That's what we're here to answer today. Let's dive into exactly how to find a clumsy villager in Disney Dreamlight Valley, the best ways to give them their favorite gifts, and why you might want to do so.

How to find a clumsy villager in Disney Dreamlight Valley
The clumsy villager you're looking for is Goofy. While some would argue that characters like Donald Duck and Olaf are clumsy, Goofy is the character you'll have to give gifts to for this Star Path duty. By finding Goofy in Dreamlight Valley, Eternity Isle, or the Storybook Vale, you can give him three gifts and quickly knock out this duty without any issues.
If you can't find Goofy anywhere, there's usually one of three reasons. The first is that he's asleep if you're logging on between 5 a.m. and 9 a.m. Outside these hours, you may not notice his portrait if he's in a busy location, such as inside Chez Remy or Scrooge McDuck's shop. Alternatively, if you have the Rift in Time or The Storybook Vale expansions, he may be roaming around Eternity Isle or the Vale rather than Dreamlight Valley.
What are the clumsy villager's favorites in Disney Dreamlight Valley?
Goofy's "favorites" refers to his three daily preferred gifts. Depending on the Star Path event, this can range from three to five required items. You can find this exact list in the Collection log under characters. Hovering over his portrait reveals his three favorite items for the day, which you can gift him to complete the Star Path task.
The exact requirements and rewards vary with each Star Path even you complete. During this task's first appearance, Majesty and Magnolias, you received 20 tokens for gifting three favorite items to Goofy. With the more recent Adventures in Never Land Star Path, you obtained the same reward but need to give him five gifts instead of three.
In other words, you can complete this in one to two days if you gather all three gifts per day. Otherwise, if you're missing one or two, you'll have to wait another day to wrap up the task and claim your reward. Since events like Adventures in Never Land raise the objective to five gifts, you'll need at least two to three days to finish this task instead. Plan ahead so you can complete this in time for the event's end.
