The Pumpkinhead Gamejack is an event that took place throughout 2019 that involved Pumpkinhead staging a gamejack of Johnisdead. This ruse involved the obfuscation of information on the Johnisdead Wiki and the participation of several players. It was supposedly enacted by Pumpkinhead as an attempt to paint himself as a non-threatening entity that was not canon to Johnisdead.
History
The Pumpkinhead Gamejack began on August 23rd, 2019 when certain bits of information were being omitted from the Johnisdead Wiki. During this period, Wolfcat was the main player responsible for keeping the Wiki updated. Since it was later revealed that Pumpkinhead had access to Wolfcat's various accounts, it's likely that this was Pumpkinhead attempting to obfuscate his own presence.
The first information omitted was in relation to the possible ramifications of playing the Inverted Song of Time to restore Astralobservatory.net. GHOSTBABEL warned that doing this might open up dangerous dimensions and allow malicious entities to enter inside. Regardless, the players submitted the Inverted Song of Time, restoring the website. Shortly after this, the player Wolfcat began acting strangely. His avatar changed to a distorted jack-o-lantern from the game Minecraft and he posted the song "Cat" from the same game. Also omitted from the timeline was a mysterious locked announcement titled "Connections" on his website Meatouchers.com.
