I was not aware there was a Great Pumpkin game.... I might need to order this for only $20.

*Editorial correction:

Upon further review, the aforementioned "hot vampire bitches" are actually "hot ghost bitches."

Here's the commercial for Miller Lite's "Big Halloween Haunt" contest ad with Clarence Clemons, which is the most 1990 thing I've ever seen.

I particularly love the bat that flies into frame with further contest details printed on his wings.

Day 9:

Miller Lite (1990)

In 1990 if you found a special orange & black can in your case, you could win a trip to Universal Studios Hollywood for "the most amazing Halloween party on earth" with Clarence Clemons and hot vampire bitches.

Day 8:

Starburst Fruit Chews, 1982

Remember getting Starburst in your trick-or-treat bag before they were sold in 2-pc "Fun Size" packs? We've been so conditioned that loose, individually-wrapped Starburst just seems suspicious. Like clowns.

Each one was like a tiny gift to reward yourself after a hard night’s work trick-or-treating. The anticipation of ripping it open to see what treasures await!

If you were a crow I imagine these would be the baubles I’d find in your nest.

But the most fabled among trick-or-treaters were the houses that gave out a carefully-curated assortment of candy and trinkets tucked into one of these little paper bags.

I also loved getting stickers in my trick-or-treat bag. I bought some this year to hand out to the kids I recognize from around our neighborhood. (Just the non asshole ones, though.)

Depadieu is a total creep but this movie is full of NYC apartment porn so I kinda of love it for that alone.

Cool plastic rings were always top tier loot for my trick-or-treat bag. It was always nice to get a few surprises mixed in with all that candy.

What were some of your favorite non-candy treats?
