After playing Stardew Valley for a bit, you have probably gotten your mitts on that cute little Chicken Statue from Gunther at the Museum if you have ever donated the Chicken Statue artifact. There are far more statues to be found hidden in Stardew Valley, far stranger and rarer than any simple Chicken.

Why did Concerned Ape go to all the trouble of creating several bizarre secret statues in their game? We might never know, but whether you are planning to start your very own collection of Stardew Valley secret items or just shopping for some home decorations, here is every secret statue and where to find them.

There are tons of statues in Stardew Valley; many of which can be crafted or purchased. This list will only go over the secret ones that have unique methods to obtain them.

Updated May 17, 2023 by Jacqueline Zalace: We've updated this list with a clearer description of how to get each statue. Additionally, we've added a new piece of decor that you can obtain.

11 Wumbus

How To Obtain

Play the Crane Game at the Movie Theater during the Summer (when the Wumbus movie is playing)

What on earth is a Wumbus? We are not sure, but it is certainly very lumpy. This green, bumpy friend who only deems it necessary to wear white go-go boots can be won in the crane game inside the Movie Theater. To unlock the Movie Theater, you must have not only completed the Community Center but also the Missing Bundle located in the abandoned JojaMart.

During this same time period, you can find a matching Bobo statue.

Wumbus can be secured while the "Wumbus" movie is playing in theaters, during the Movie Theater's second year of business. How did they fit a whole statue inside a crane game? Perhaps it is best if we stop asking so many questions.

10 Solid Gold Lewis

How To Obtain

Solve Secret Note #19

Honestly, who doesn't want a solid gold statue of our dear Pelican Town mayor in their home? This 18-karat beaut can be located in town after finding "Secret Note #19". You will be able to find and read secret notes after meeting "Shadow Guy" otherwise known as our friend Krobus. They will give a Magnifying Glass that will allow you to read any notes you dig up or find in drops.

The blue house depicted in Secret Note #19 is actually 1 Willow Lane. Starting from there, follow the arrows in each direction indicated until you cannot move further. You will end up at none other than Mayor Lewis' house. Now his rather expensive-looking "secret project" is yours to put where you please.

9 Gourmand Statue

How To Obtain

Fish in Pirate Cove (Ginger Island Southeast)

You have probably never seen this wise old frog. That is because it can only be found on Ginger Island in a secret fishing spot. On the east side of Island Southeast lies a hidden entrance to Pirate Cove.

It is only within these pools that you can fish for the Gourmand Statue, though sadly you only have a five percent chance of catching this old sage yourself.

8 Iridium Krobus

How To Obtain

Fish from in front of the Cindersap Forest Sewer Entrance

A far more charming likeness to grace your abode than the Solid Gold Lewis statue, this purple Krobus statue is made from pure Iridium. Cast your line and fish this fellow up out of the ocean near Cindersap Forest. The ocean, you ask? Yes, the ocean is technically reachable from the southernmost area of Cindersap Forest.

To reach those depths though, you must have a total Fishing level of 15. This effect can be achieved by eating a gold-quality Seafoam Pudding prepared with Qi Seasoning once you have reached level ten Fishing and maxing out the casting meter of your fishing rod.

7 Stone Junimo

How To Obtain

Solve Secret Note #14

This stone cutie is the perfect reminder of all the hard work you are pouring into the Community Center. The location of the Stone Junimo statue can be found after discovering Secret Note #14.

Very fittingly, the Stone Junimo is located behind the Community Center, hidden by the building itself just beside the wooden fencing to the right. Strike the ground with a hoe or pickaxe to dig it up. Who buried this little statue out back behind the Community Center and why? We might never know.

6 Stone Owl

How To Obtain

Random Farm Spawn (during the night, you will hear an owl hoot if this event triggers)

Perhaps the rarest statue in the whole of Stardew Valley, not because it is difficult to find, per se, but because the Stone Owl statue only spawns at random.

As you tend to your farm, you have a 0.5 percent chance of hearing the hoot of an owl before you tuck into bed. In the morning, you will find this stoic friend squatting somewhere on your farm. It is one of the rarest events in Stardew Valley, and especially unique because, unlike other events which spawn items, the Stone Owl can even appear twice.

5 ??Foroguemon??

How To Obtain

Place A Strange Bun in Vincent's Toy Chest

There is something about the name "??Foroguemon??" which inspires immediate reverence, if not a touch of trepidation. A slouching, lizard-like creature, this bizarre statue can be found in an even more peculiar fashion.

If you were to place a Strange Bun within Vincent's toy chest at 1 Willow Lane, who should appear but the Foroguemon statue. You can pick it up and parade it around town, or just bring it back home. It sure does make an interesting centerpiece.

4 ??HMTGF??

How To Obtain

Place A Super Cucumber in a hidden box above the Blacksmith's Shop

We hear you. What does "??HMTGF??" stand for? What is a "??HMTGF??". Why does it look like Gonzo from the Muppets crossed with Bender from Futurama? These are all great questions.

By the Blacksmith's shop, you can find a brown box inside a small fenced area. Sneakily, the entrance to the enclosure is tucked away behind a tree to the right. Place a little Super Cucumber into the box, and boom. ??HMTGF??.

3 ??Pinky Lemon??

How To Obtain

Place Duck Mayonnaise inside a hidden box in Stardrop Saloon's storage room (this is the room filled with barrels)

It is almost as if Concerned Ape is asking us... is it Pinky? Is it Lemon? It is unclear how we are supposed to understand any better than them, but this Dr. Seuss-looking critter is just another secret statue to be found in Stardew Valley by placing a random item inside an even more strange location.

Get yourself a jar of Duck Mayonnaise and make your way down to the Stardrop Saloon. It is a little tough to see, but there is a purple box tucked away in the back room. Plop that mayo inside, and you too can wonder out loud, "what the heck is a Pinky Lemon??".

2 Statue Of Perfection

How To Obtain

Interact with Grandpa's Shrine when all four candles have been lit

The ultimate prize, beyond simply restoring the Community Center, or even marrying your Pelican Town crush, is this purple bear statue. Why you might ask? The Statue Of Perfection is your reward for passing "Grandpa's Evaluation" after toiling on the farm for three years.

When you reach 100 percent completion for Stardew Valley, you will receive the Statue of True Perfection, which gives you one Prismatic Shard a day.

If all four candles on Grandpa's Shrine are lit by the end of your third year, according to how well you have tended the farm and the community, Grandpa will bestow on you the Statue Of Perfection. Far more than just a symbol of your deceased grandfather's approval from beyond the grave, the Statue Of Perfection also produces between two to eight pieces of Iridium Ore each day.

1 Strange Capsule

How To Obtain

Random Farm Spawn (during the night, you will hear UFO sound effects if the event triggers)

Lastly, we have the Strange Capsule. This isn't quite a statue, but it's worth including, as it functions the same. After the first year on your farm, there is a 0.8 percent chance that the capsule will appear on your farm.

The item will initially be called the Strange Capsule, with "something fleshy bobbing around in the fluid". After three days, the capsule will be empty, with some of the glass broken. Once broken, you have a one percent chance of spotting a mysterious figure during the night. The capsule has no practical use, but you can use it as decoration, similar to how you use the other hidden statues.
