Day 12: Poll – What’s Your Favorite Halloween Candy to Steal from the Bowl?

Halloween wouldn’t be complete without a sugar rush—and when it comes to Halloween candy ideas, everyone has their secret favorite. Some of us are die-hard chocolate fans, while others can’t resist the fruity chew of a classic. And let’s be real: whether you’re a kid, a parent, or the host of a murder mystery party, we’ve all snuck a spooky sweet treat or two from the candy bowl when no one’s looking.
For Day 12 of our 31 Days of the Ultimate Halloween Mystery countdown, we’re asking you to weigh in. Cast your vote in our Halloween candy poll and find out which treat reigns supreme in our community of mystery-lovers!
🍬 The Sweet Line-Up: Your Candy Suspects
Every party has its cast of characters—and every candy bowl has its usual suspects. Which one would you “interrogate” first?
- Chocolate Bars – The smooth operator of the candy world.
- Peanut Butter Cups – Sweet, salty, and always guilty of being irresistible.
- Chewy Fruities (Starburst, Skittles, etc.) – Colorful and unpredictable, like the wildcard guest.
- Caramel & Nougat (Milky Way, Snickers, etc.) – Layers of secrets wrapped up in one bite.
- Hard Candy & Lollipops – Old-fashioned but always plotting to stick around.
- Other Wildcards – Got a favorite not on the list? Write it in!
🕵️ Why Candy Matters at Your Party
At Night of Mystery, we believe candy isn’t just for trick-or-treaters—it’s a clever way to fuel your guests and add playful flair to your murder mystery party. Bowls of spooky sweet treats give players a reason to gather, chat, and sneak in-character candy confessions. Want to make it extra fun? Assign each character a candy “tell” and see if other guests can figure it out.
Example: Your detective character might only snack on “mystery-filled” candies like Tootsie Pops, while the diva of the group demands only peanut butter cups. It’s a small detail that adds big personality.
