Crate and Barrel: Spider Bowl

First to recommend

Description

This spider-webbed candy bowl may make some trick-or-treaters think twice before going for the goods . . . but if getting candy were too simple, Halloween wouldn't be nearly as much fun !

Dean & DeLuca: Pumpkin Truffles

First to recommend

Description

For the upscale soiree you will be hosting this Hallow's Eve, a more gastronomically appealing and seasonally appropriate dessert would be hard to find. And, if you are lucky enough to be invited to someone else's bash, this is one swell hostess gift.

Bob Timberlake: Witch's Legs

First to recommend

Description

Add a pair of witches legs to your front door, an eerily decorated shelf or even the living room mantelpiece . . . everyone will wonder where you put the rest of her and if she's likely to make an unexpected appearance at the witching hour . . .

Amazon: You've Been Warned by James Patterson

First to recommend

Description

If you like to spend your Halloween curled up with a spine-tingling horror story, then try this cautionary tale by James Patterson. A little more subtle than Stephen King, but equally eerie.

HearthSong: Mexican Sugar Skull Kit

First to recommend

Description

The Mexican Day of the Dead ( or Dia de los Muertos) is not a morose and maudlin occasion, but rather a way of paying homage to loved ones who have died. In honor of this festive occasion, skeletons and skulls are decorated boldly and brightly. Avoid the post-Halloween buzz kill by participating in this festive day, which occurs on the day immediately following All Hallow's Eve (and also happens to be a Saturday this year.)

HearthSong: Haunted Ghoulie Mansion

First to recommend

Description

A fabulous, sugar-free Halloween treat that will provide more lasting enjoyment than a bowl of candy corn, this "haunted house" spills forth an array of ghouls that are almost to cute to spook.

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital Shop: Hairy Scary spider cookie mix

First to recommend

Description

Making your own spiders isn't something you would generally be inclined to do . . . unless you were in complete control of the results. And that is definitely the case with this cookie mix that provides the doughy foundation and frosting for spider bodies. You decide what color the body will be and add as many (or few) eyes and legs as you desire. And, THEN, you eat them ! Not-so-scary but very yummy.

Dylan's Candy Bar: Trick or Treat Halloween Tote Bag Basket

First to recommend

Description

Okay, I'll admit it. I love the bag. But I'll take the candy too. And, while I'm at it, I will get another one for my favorite trick-or-treater so that he has ample room for the all-important collection process. Go ahead. Splurge a little. We all deserve a treat in the midst of all the world financial turmoil.
