What you buy

Spectral Mutation is obtained as a consumable from Soul Extractor, in the Phantom Express area. The offer shows 500 Souls for one unit. Buying the consumable does not mean your egg already has Spectral.

Requirements

You need the Phantom Express Ticket, access to its area and enough Souls / Haunted Spirits. Candy Corn does not replace this currency: fighting monsters and capturing ghosts are different activities.

How to obtain it

1. Go to the station with your ticket unlocked and check the arrival countdown to board Phantom Express.
2. At its destination, collect Ghost Vacuum and capture spirits to earn Souls.
3. Open Soul Extractor, compare your balance with the displayed cost and exchange for the consumable. Check the price before paying.
4. Confirm you received the unit. Then select the egg you want to improve and use its Spectral mutation option.
5. Inspect the egg to confirm whether the mutation applied; the exchange and the application result are separate steps.

Common mistake: gathering Candy Corn for this purchase. Here you need Souls earned with Ghost Vacuum.

Checklist: ticket → train → vacuum → Souls → consumable → result checked. The creator has not announced a specific removal date for the consumable.

Unlock the ticket through Echo’s Memories.
