There are endless options for what you put inside your pumpkins.

  • Toss in a few prizes like spider rings, witch’s fingers or vampire fangs.
  • Put the “trick” in trick-or-treat with some gag gifts like a whoopee cushion or a pair of Halloween socks!
  • Get your guests to go for a grand prize by including a pumpkin filled to the top with candy or a special token to trade in for a bigger prize.
