That is stinkin’ cute. Happy Happy Halloween!!
Love me some of those Reese’s cups – super ready for Halloween! π
I LOVE me some Halloween Tootsie Pops! Big time weakness!
Thanks fort the chance to win!
That’s the cutest pumpkin. My dog has a Mr. Bill doll. I wish I’d thought to do something like that with Mr. Bill.
I’ve been eating a lot of Snickers lately, so I suppose that answers your treat question.
love that pumpkin. My favorite treat is anything Reese’s. Love it a little too much lol.
Have a Happy Halloween

Like to get Mounds and Snickers in my Halloween basket. Favorite costumes are all my mother made for kids in the family, the fave being the cow she made, saved now for my sister now pregnant again for next year.
My favorite Halloween candy is Kit Kat. What I also like about Halloween is seeing people get all creative, whether it’s house decorating, their costumes or the foods. I have seen some pretty yummy homemade cupcakes done in honor of the season.
My favorite costume was a cleopatra costume I made myself in 1082!
Happy Halloween! I love candy corn, I eat enough of it during October to suffice until the next October! As far as costumes, we always made them when we were kids, the standard costume usually was a trash bag with leaves stapled to it…not the greatest, but it worked!
Thanks for the contest Cynthia!
Thanks for hosting – great pumpkin! I LOVE Halloween! I love everything about it! My favorite Halloween book is Big Pumpkin and my favorite costume is my witch outfit – wish I could wear it all year! I have the greatest broom! Too bad it doesn’t really fly – one day perhaps! Have a great holiday!

My favorite candy is Reeseβs cups. The rest of the candy would just sit there after the Reese’s were gone.
As for my favorite Halloween movie…that would have to be Hocus Pocus. I never get tired of that movie.
Hi Cynthia, Thank you for this great giveaway.
Well my favourite halloween moment was when I was 6 when my older brother and his friend dressed up and took me trick or treating.
I was a witch. My brother was dracula with the cape and everything. His friend was Fu Manchu. My mum and nanna made us all up. My dad bought the costumes from an auction.
It was great.
As for favourite halloween movie, I can’t pick because I love too many films. But I do love to watch the original halloween and nightmare on elm street movies. They are always good to watch on halloween.
Hope you have a good halloween

Hi Cynthia! π
Happy Halloween!
My favorite Halloween costume would have to be the pink alien costume I wore when I was 10. The costume was bright neon pink latext catsuit, I painted my face bright pink and I had pink glittery alien antennas on my head. But that had to be my favorite costume I ever wore! π
My favorite Halloween sweetie has to be the Haribo spooky ghosts π
My favorite Halloween movie has to be Practical Magic, I’ve loved that movie since I was 8 years old! It’s such a good Halloween movie because it has witches in it π
On Halloween I love to hand out sweets to the trick or treaters, but now I love to go to halloween parties. But this year I’ll be handing out sweets to the trick or treaters while doing course work π
Thank you for this amazing give away! π
My favorite Halloween costume has to be Moning Myrtle from Harry Potter. I have judged a couple of contests before and this by far was my favorite. Hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween!
Happy Halloween to everyone!!!
Is giveaway open internationally?
let’s chance it π
My favorite Halloween treat is apple pie with cinnamon!
We don’t have a real pumpkin because the wild animals eat them the first night we leave them out. We have deer, coyotes, wild boars, raccoons, foxes & God knows what else comes in our yard at night.
I love Candy Corn. I mix it with peanuts, let it sit for a while & it tastes like a Payday candy bar. I also like the caramel candy corn. I’m glad it’s not available year round! LOL
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Love your pumpkin. My favorite Halloween treat is candy corn. My favorite costume is a pirate.
My favorite thing during this time of year is apple cider and sitting around the camp fire. It is just the perfect weather for it.
Happy Halloween!
My favorite costume is a tricky one! Lol…2 years ago my family (hub, daughter & son) & I along with some friends dressed as “The Flintstones”…it was too adorable & we won best family costume at a church function.
But this year, since my kids (4&3) are obsessed with vampires &I werewolves like me, we are going all out with The Vampire Diaries as our theme. I’m gonna be a vampire, daughter a witch & son a werewolf. Can’t wait to see how it all turns our, so this may become our favorite after tonight!
One year I dressed as a Drow Elf. I know. Totally Geeky, but awesome and sexy too. Leotard, tights, a cloak, fake pointy ears, make up, boots and real looking, fake weapons. π Favorite treat. Crunch bar.
My favorite costume would be what I would wear tonight. I want to go out as a pirate wench. I even have the boned corset to put everything in place..LOL My son is a bit more tame and doesn’t like masks, so he’s a GhostBuster this year. π
Thanks for the giveaway!

I love Halloween and this time of year.
My favorite part of Halloween is that I buy too much candy – oops – and then I have to eat the rest. π
Thanks for the giveaway
Pam
This is the first year that my little one gets to go trick or treating. Of course she thinks anything that tastes good is a cookie and can not say trick or treat. But she goes up and says peassss, then they hand her the candy and she looks at it and ooohhhh, then drops it in her pumpkin and and says bye-bye. Very cute. The malls around here were doing trick or treating on the weekend took her to a couple of those. She is a little puppy, you ask her what the doggie says and she says Arf Arf.
My favorite Halloween candy is candy corn!! And I love to dress up! Happy Halloween Cynthia! π
LOVE YOUR PUMPKIN!!
My favorite Halloween was when I dressed up as one of Sherrilyn Kenyon’s Dark Hunters and went to a local band’s concert in my home town. It was a blast and I got to show off my bookish ways.
My favorite Halloween treat: Reese’s Pumpkins!! YUMMMM!
Thanks.
I love your pumpkin. My sona dn I carved a spooky face into ours. My favorite Halloween costume was when I dressed up as a zombie cheerleader about 10 years ago. It was really neat and all my friends thought it was so cool, now zombies are everywhere on Halloween. Thanks for the giveaway.
Favorite Halloween candy? Well I love Twizzlers (sons always hand them to me) and Baby Ruth, Snickers, or anything with nuts
Candy I like. Pumpkin you carved I like too. love, Yoda
I love your pumpkin and you must share a pic of yourself in costume later! I love all the chocolate and candy during Halloween…and all the crazy costumes I see people wearing.
Don’t enter me Cynthia ~ I have already had the opportunity to read this fabulous book ~ Thank you for that!!!

Happy Halloween!! My favorite thing to find in a halloween basket is mello cups. They are hard to find, but when I get them I do enjoy it. One of my favorite movies is The Monster Squad. –Rachel
Happy Halloween! That is a cute pumpkin! Love peanut M&Ms, 100 Grand bars, and Reese’s! Yummy!
Love the Yoda! I’m just going with my hubby to take the boys trick or treating tonight and hoping to stay warm in the process, will be drinking plenty of hot chocolate or coffee before hand to at least warm up the insides π Thanks for the giveaway!
Hi Cynthia! My favorite Halloween treat is candy corn. I love it!!!
I am really feeling the force girl! How cute, I love it! I just wanted to tell you Happy Halloween to you and yours.
My favorite costumes tend to be pop culture references and this year I have seen Mayhem from the Geico insurance commercials and the dancing Sundrop girl. I loved them! Happy Halloween!
I like the Halloween costume.
Happy and safe Halloween everyone!
Oh my I love your pumpkin… Have a starwars fans in my house… My favorite costume would have to be dressing up as an angel, princess or anything else girly. I am going as a dark fairy tonight… My boys are a dragon and a knight. Best thing about Halloween is that it’s my Hubby’s birthday… I make a big deal about it every year.As a mom I love all the cute kid costumes… My boys are 8 and 23 mths so anyway I can make them match somehow works for me. Happy Halloween everyone be safe and have a great day even though it is Monday lol
I love your pumpkin. He is so cute. My favorite Halloween movie is Hocus Pocus. Bette Midler is on of my favorite actresses. And the movie doesn’t scare me. It took me seeing it last year to realize that the cat was done by Sean Murray from NCIS. What a hoot…lol

I love how excited the babes get Trick-or-Treating. My favorite treat of theirs to steal is any kettle corn π We do not have any specific costumes that need to be worn, just what we can throw together. Happy Halloween!
My eldest son (31) would be SO envious of your pumpkin :).
My favorite costume was when my youngest was a baby. The eldest son turned his brothers stroller into the bat mobile and he even made his little brother a bat costume. It was fantastic.
My favorite treat to nab is the Milkyway bar.
Have a very Happy Halloween :)!

Raised in Mexico just a few *coughdecadescough* ago, I’ll say that to this day I don’t quite get having adults wear costumes to celebrate Halloween–because I didn’t even know what it was or the actual day it was celebrated, until well into my teens.
Instead, I remember buying sugar skulls of various sizes and eating enough of them to rot my teeth and send me into sugar-induced mania. Sadly, none of them had my actual name on them*–which happens when you have an unusual name.
* “Calaveritas” or sugar skulls usually have popular names on tiny pieces of paper stuck to the forehead and you give your friends or family–or that kid you fancy–one or several with their names on.
My favorite Halloween candy is bottle caps. It’s the only time of year I can find them. I used to steal them from my brother (or trade if he caught me). Thanks for the giveaway!

I LOVE Hershey Bar Miniatures especially the dark chocolate!
Have a Happy Halloween=)
Happy Halloween Cynthia! Thanks so much for the giveaway! My favorite Halloween candy is Reece’s Pumpkins. So good! Better than regular cups in my opinion. Don’t really have a favorite Halloween costume as I have not dressed up in years, but I think a member of the “ton”, decked out in ball gown, dripping in jewels, fancy updo, and domino would be so much fun. Favorite Halloween movie HAS the be It’s The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. Who doesn’t love that? I won’t be dressing up, but I will have the Reece’s and watch the movie with the kids! π
I love Halloween, the decorations, the costumes and the candy! For adults, I really like the play on words costumes (deviled egg, killer bee, etc), it is fun to figure out what they are. For kids, I just love seeing them smile and have fun, love all the little princess girls and action figure boys.
Happy Halloween Cynthia. I would love to see a picture of you in your Angel of Darkness costume. My fave candy is 3 Musketeers. yum.
In my office today, many of the departments did a theme. We had busy bees, zombies, Jersey shore, etc. It was quite entertaining.
