Ghost Emoji Kitchen
Ghost is three pairings short of complete, at 616 of 619, and it is still accelerating. Its biggest release was the most recent one: 139 new stickers on 2 February 2026, larger than its 119-sticker debut back in October 2020. Very few emoji are both nearly finished and receiving their largest batches five years in.

Dates read from the Emoji Kitchen sticker assets Google serves through Gboard, which stamp each combination with the release that introduced it.
The most recent release was the biggest
That is rare. For most emoji the debut is the high-water mark and everything after is a top-up, which is why frog and turtle peak on their first row. Ghost inverts it. After thirty releases spread across five years, February 2026 delivered more than any single drop before it, and the grid you are looking at is meaningfully larger than the one anyone saw at Halloween 2025.
Seasonal demand, year-round artwork
Ghost searches climb sharply in October and collapse in November, which is the pattern you would expect. The combination set does not follow that rhythm at all. The jack-o-lantern pairing is the obvious seasonal one and it is good, but skull, heart eyes and cry all produce stickers that work in ordinary conversation, where ghost reads as playful rather than spooky. That second use is what keeps it in the top tier of searched emoji outside autumn.
