Halloween Vegan Treats: Win 'Em Here!

petahalloween.JPG

For most kids, Halloween isn't about getting the highest-quality candy or taking the time to savor each bite—it's about getting your hands on the largest pile of sweets your parents will allow and inhaling it as fast as you can. Well, that's what it was all about for me, anyway.

Fortunately, vegan kids around the country don't have to miss out on one of the few times of the year that it's OK to eat candy to the point of illness. Vegan candies are now easier to find than ever before, and many of the sweets on your local grocery store's shelves are even "accidentally vegan." Check out this list to learn more about them.

To help fuel this year's upcoming sugar buzz, I am giving away three Halloween candy prize packs courtesy of Pangea. The Halloween prize pack features VeganSweets Caramels (the first vegan caramels to hit the market), "Vampire's Lunch" Gummy Candies (ooh, creepy!), orange Candy Tree lollipops, and an Endangered Species chocolate bar.

All you have to do to enter is leave a comment below telling me whom, or what, you'll be for Halloween, and the three most creative answers, as determined by me, win!

And now for the legal stuff: The contest ends on October 13, and three winners will be selected and notified by October 14. You should also be sure to read the contest terms and conditions and PETA's privacy policy before you comment—you're acknowledging that you have read and agree to both by leaving a comment.

Good luck!

Kaimi Blaha :

My husband and I have five four rescued dachshunds. We are going to be The Village People for Halloween. Strudel will be the policeman, Logan is the Indian, Oreo is the cowboy, Max is the construction worker, I will be the Navy Officer and my husband is going to be the biker. I've been working on our costumes for quite awhile. We are going to a doggie trick or treat party. Should be lots of fun!!!

Jamie :

I haven't picked my costume yet (I'm leaning toward marilyn monroe from the seven year itch) but I am helping my friend make a really awesome Quail-Man (from the cartoon Doug) costume. :) Regardless, this candy looks super delicious!

Sonia :

Hi there! I love your site! I'm a longtime lurker (:
This year for Halloween, I'm going as Anais Nin, and my fiance will be Henry Miller (author of Death of a Salesman). They had a long affair, back in the day...

bri'gette :

I just love candy,,,
We don't celebrate Halloween...

So I won;t be dressing up.. but where can I find the vegan caramels? mmm they look so mmm good!

Peace&love...

i'm going to be Tippi Hedren from the alfred hitchcock film 'the birds'. i'll even have the blonde wig with a crow stuck in it and a trickle of blood down my forehead. maybe a cage with 2 fake love birds in it.


Mary West :

I am going to be a piece of gum on the bottom of a shoe. I'm going to wear all pink clothes and attatch a shoe to my head :)

Shanna Alley :

Hello there. Never tried vegan halloween candy, except for the endangered species chocolate.

candice :

I just want to say that joining PETA and actively taking action for animals has been such a rewarding experience!!

Stacy :

Happy Halloween!

Sasha :

For Halloween, I plan on being Cass Elliot of The Mamas and The Papas.

Vlyandra :

My boyfriend and I will be dressing up as a Spy and Engineer from Team Fortress 2, respectively. He'll be blue team, I'll be red. He's also going to be wearing an Engineer mask and a nametag that says "Hello, my name is VLyandra, I'm an engineer."

It's really nerdy, I know. ^^;;

marley :

did smeone say cookies!!!!!!!!

Wendy :

This year my girlfriend and I made the choice to live 'car-free' for a year, riding our bikes or taking the bus wherever we need to go, so we wanted to incorporate that into our Halloween costumes. So we're both going as two members of the "Bicycle Enthusiast Club"-Lance Armstrong and the Wicked Witch of the West (aka Miss Gulch), making sure we can wear our costumes while riding:-)

My name is Jessie, I am a 16 year old girl and i still love holloween. I have been a vegatarion for i while now and have decided to become a vegan. For Holloween i am going to be a hippie. I chose to be a hippie because that time era (60s) was the starting point of standing up for peace to everyone, and everything, including animals.

Meghan Gill :

For this upcoming spooky Halloween, I'm going to be a candy corn witch! I love sugar, especially candy corn in the month of October! And i thought witches and candy corn was a very appropriate combination for a perfect costume. Recently, since becoming vegan, i was worried about trick-or-treating and not being able to eat the candy that I usually get by the bags full.
But this delish candy you're giving out sounds amazing! Halloween is my favorite holiday, and my birthday is October 13, when contest ends, so this would definately be a sweet treat!

Lauren :

By using a little tape and putting wire in my hair, I will transform into a person in a wind storm... without the wind.

tonya morris :

I have two Vegan sons who love to go trick or treating, but most of the candy they get they give away because they can't eat it. They would love to try these awesome vegan treats.

myra :

I convinced my whole sorority to be bunnies!!

this halloween i am hoing to be a unicorn
But not just any unicorn the one from the last unicorn
and i am making my costume too

Tara Simpson :

Hi! I am going to be Pamela Anderson for Halloween! And I haven't ate meat in 11 years, and I've been vegan for a little over a year!
Thank You!, Tara Simpson

Erin :

Erin :

I am going to be a skeleton with a scary clown face hehe

Leslie McNabb :

I plan to dress up my dog in a monkey costume with wings, and I will be the Wicked Witch from the Wizard of Oz!

claudia jura :

I'm a vegetarian Witch, and I love halloween, when me and my daughter can go out on the town, in our ritual garb and no one blinks an eye, I'd love to the first in our area, to hand out veggie treats to all the litte sweets...

Allison :

This Halloween, I'm "Going Green"--no, not environmentally friendly (though I try to do that, too), but literally GREEN: GREEN organic cotton leggings, GREEN organic cotton hoodie, Glow-in-the-Dark GREEN No Miss nail polish (from Pangea!)... and whatever else I can find within the next few weeks!

Kyle anderson :

im going as a veggie burger

Jasmine Soto :

Im not exactly sure what Ill be for halloween yet.But Im thinking of being something dead and creepy.Ooo maybe a dead cheerleader.Yeah,I like that.=)

Kelli :

I'm afraid I don't usually come up with super-creative, unique Halloween costumes. I tend to do the old school traditional ones (witch, vampire, etc.), but I do it up right and on the cheap by using stuff I already have and, in lieu of masks, I put my makeup skills to work and really paint on a scary face!

Lauren Li :

I'm going to be (Where's) Waldo for Halloween this year! =)

Melanie Gray :

For halloween i have had so many great idea's, although i can't affored to buy a brand new costum i will be trying to buy one from a used store. I am hoping to be a 70's disco Dancer becuase i can really feel amazing out on a dance floor WITHOUT wearing Animals, & that makes me feel Amazing :)

Rebecca Waddell :

I am a vegetarian trying to become vegan, and am a total sweet fiend! Finding veggie sweets can be difficult.

weather permitting, I will be taking my 6 yr old to trick or treat this year. There is a certain area of town where they get hit up with HUNDREDS of trick or treaters and the police even close the streets down. Luckily, most of the residents take it in stride and get into it as well. My daughter is going to be a ballerina this year, me-a walking, talking, breathing zombie-night of the living dead deal. Lucky me, we get to dress up for Halloween at work too! I am trying to eat healthy, and while I do eat meat, I am expanding my horizons a bit to eat more veggies and experiment with new things.

I'm so excited to have found this information on vegan candies. At age 50, I have been vegan for two years -- and a reading tutor for K-2 students for a few weeks! I have been agonizing over what to do for my kids for Halloween, one of the great celebrations. I am going to be Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom and teaching this year for our school's Halloween parade. (My reading room mascot is a Great Horned Owl puppet named Athena.) I hope to inspire my students to love reading, to want to learn about history and culture -- and to understand the vegan point of view and think about animals in a new way. I already mention what I can, when I can, to help introduce them to new ideas (I recently surprised one little girl by telling her that humans are also animals, which made her eyes get as big and round as Athena the Owl's!) When we talk about favorite foods, I mention that I don't eat meat myself. Getting back to the issue of candy, I have been torn between wanting to give them treats and not wanting to encourage them to eat unhealthy and/or non-vegan sweets. Now I know I don't have to choose! I can give them candy-with-a-conscience and maybe sneak in a comment or two about vegan values with it. Hooray! Or as Minerva would say (in Latin), "Eugepae!"

Megan :

The Halloween prize pack sounds great!
This year, I decided to dress up as Buster Keaton.

Heather :

Ziggy Stardust! (David Bowie)

Maja :

Sexy bride.

J. :

A punk witch of my own design using my own clothes since Halloween designers seem to think "punk" means "slut". (>.>) I admit that I wore it last year, but everyone said they liked it better than the usual witch costume, and this year I intend to add on to improve.

Linda :

I am going to be a Vampiress.

Julie Moe :

I'll be a meat-eater, the scariest creatures of all.

TERESA NELSON :

I'm going to be a ghost for Halloween. :)

:) Thank you for the great giveaway! :)

Carey :

I want to be a sexy witch. Years ago when I was young I was an ugly wicked witch. This time I want to be a sexy one!

Amy Tucker :

I am going as a nerd in a lab jacket. Not very exciting but it will fit where I work.

Kim M :

Always a vampire.

Silvya :

For Halloween I am going to go as the Black Dahlia.

Caitlin Anderson :

I am going to be she-ra and my boyfriend is going to be He-man.

Carol :

susan varney :

evil mary

Mya Brooks :

I'm dressing up as a 60's hippy!

Krysta McKee :

My two roommates and I are going to be the three blind mice =)

Jamie :

I'm going to go as the scary american woman that is taking too long to realize she ACTUALLY prefers her vegan meals over the meat eating days. :) Admitting it is the first step to recovery, right?

For Halloween I'll be a mother. I'll be dressed in usual mother-of-a-toddler garb, pants that need an good ironing, a shirt with some random dried bits of food and probably a mis matched pair of socks and some old tattered tennis shoes.

I may not have time to apply my entire costume of hair and makeup, but that's all part of the theme. Chances are I'll scare more little kiddies if I leave the house sans makeup.

The best part of my costume will include a toddler dressed as a monkey and a teenager dressed as, well, a teenager who's too cool for dressing up. (But of course he's never too old for candy.)

Happy Halloween!

Gina Stratos :

Probably a witch
gkstratos@yahoo.com

kathleen haas :

candy looks great

Angie :

I Wanna Win!!!

Kelly :

For Halloween i will be dressed up as a "dead" zombie Snow White.

Sarah Gilbert :

Hey!
For my family, Halloween is always a huge deal! Last Halloween we were living in a maisonette, but because we moved to a house, we have a whole lawn to decorate! This year our garage will be opened for children to wander inside. It will be a witch’s domain, with my mother as the witch, lol. She will have fake ‘finger’ cookies (vegan sugar cookies made into a cylinder then flatted with an almond for the finger nail and red food colouring for the blood) in front of her for treats. As for the goodies, it isn’t as simple as asking ‘trick or treat.’ The children have to stick their hands into a large pot to find the candy. One pot out of three will be the candy. Another pot will be grapes with the skin peeled off (that will make them feel like eyes) and the other will be cooked Soba noodles (which will feel like intestines). Hopefully we can find enough fake white comb webs at the local store to put in every nook and cranny of the garage, along with our traditional material bats that will hang from the comb webs and the 6 feet picture of a window with a werewolf howling to the moon. In addition to all of this, the lights won’t be the normal lights; they will be the black lights to give the garage the perfect atmosphere. I hope the children on our street get a good scare this Halloween. Muhahahahahaha..

Dan :

A witch's dad.

jffryclough :

i turn into a candy eatin' vampire

Eric Melch :

I had a friend in high school who was a vegan and Ive actually tried some of this candy and its not half bad!

Tonya Froemel :

I am going to be the same thing I am every year, a stressed out, harried, overworked mom of three who is freaking out because she needs to convince her three daughters to wear jackets over their princess costumes to go trick-or-treating since it is freezing in Oct. in northern WI!

Adrienne Gordon :

i'm going as a veggie wrap

I'm dressing up as a lady bug. Thanks for this contest.

Rebecca Snodgrass :

I usually dont dress up, so i guess i'll just be me.

Nora :

Thank this will be great.

Sarah Sanders :

I am going to be a pound puppy with a sign that says mutts are cuter...adopt!

Melodie :

Being some what of a beginner to Peta I decided for the first time on Halloween to dress as an animal. I love vintage and polka dots so what not better to dress as MInnie Mouse. I was not aware of vegan candy and if you can't taste the difference its even better. Looks like this mouse needs to stock up for Old Hallows Eve!

Brian N. :

The village idiot....aka GW Bush

Kelley Petit :

When I was seven years old, I discovered where the milk on my cereal came from. It was a very tramatic experience! Every other year or so, I'd dress up as a Cow for Halloween. I always made sure every person that gave me candy knew they were drinking another animal's milk! Years later, I find out that that delicious candy, is also made with milk. Horrified again. Since then I can only seem to satisfy my sweet tooth with twizzlers and sweet tarts. It's so wonderful to see a product line of vegan candy!

What a fun contest! Thanks so much for offering it. :)

I'm planning to be Jem for Halloween (of the cartoon Jem and The Holograms), because I already have her hair! It's not a creative costume, it's more that I'm just reverting to my childhood, when I'd dress up as whatever cartoon I liked best at the time.

Stephanie London :

I will be a big carrot that's ready to gobble down any person that eats meat. Go Veggies!!

Sandy :

Leah Townsend :

Since I work as a teacher, I will be at work on Halloween, which is always fun because the kids have such a good time. I always thought of Halloween as a type of wish-fullfillment, so this year I will be going as a punk rocker, complete with fake facial piercings, a fauxhawk, and fake arm sleeve tattoos. I can't wait to see the look on my kids' faces! :)

Randa Morris :

For Halloween I am going to be a waitress, cook, taxi driver, teen advisor, cheerleader, sports coach, mother... (I plan to dress in my usual clothes, in other words.)
My daughter is a vegan. I think she'd really enjoy trying these tricky Halloween treats.

I will be a Klingon ;-)!!!!

Tracy :

I'll be dressing up as the Trollsen twins. I haven't decided yet if I want to be Hairy Kate or Trashley. :)

Alicia Webster :

My three-year-old daughter is going as a marinated tofu stick, my two-year-old son is a combination of a Duck and a pirate (his two favorite obsessions), and my 7 mo old will be a cherry tomato. As the mother and costume maker for the above three, I am too stinkin' tired to dress up for Halloween myself.

Lori Weaver :

In real life I am a library director. I run a small rural library. We are very liad back. The library is more like a small community center or meeting place for local patrons. I usually dress business casual fro work but for Hallowwen I would love to be the stereo typical librarian: my hair in a bun, a skirt business suit, horn brimmed glasses, and I will always be shushung people. At the library we pass out candy So I will get to see all the children come into the library in their costumes and will be ready to shush them.

No Meat 4 me :

Is vegan more important that what eating healthy is all about. The majority of the foods were presenting in "the list" had partially hydrogenate oils and high fructose syrup.

Chris :

I'm dressing up as Kaylee from Firefly. I'm searching thrift stores for a jumpsuit or some cargo pants and a vest. I'm also tie-dying one of my old long sleeve shirts to wear under it. My costume will also include my hair in messy pigtails, a pair of beat up boots, "dirt" on my face, and random tools so I look like an actual mechanic to a rust bucket. I don't think many people will know who I am, but it's an improvement over most of my costumes from the last 8 years or so because I'm a fan of the T-shirt costume.

I'm not dressing up but my kids are, my 4 year old wants to be princess Leia, so of course, my 7 week old will either be darth vader or yoda.

Cori Westphal :

We are making costumes this year. We call it our budget friendly and eco friendly Halloween. My daughter is going to be a box of theatre popcorn and my son is going to be the drink. We have them partly done already with boxes and some paint. I'm still working on an idea for a straw that comes up around my sons head. But I've already made my daughters popcorn hat!

Hi! My name is Danielle, and I am turning 18 this year on Halloween actually! Since its my birthday, Halloween has always meant a lot to me and i have always celebrated. When i became vegan two years ago i was afraid trick or treating would lose a lot of its appeal, but it didn't! there were more vegan candies then i thought, and every year my friends and i host a small get together and share the vegan candy we collected. (it would be fun to share the treats with them if i win!) For both, im going to be a jack in a box! (jill in a box? danielle in a box?) I'm way excited for Halloween this year, and i hope you and everyone else is too. Thanks for doing this contest, its a great idea :)

I would die to win some of this candy for my Vegan Halloween gathering! I am going to be a Jack in the Green for Halloween. He is a spirit that guards over the forest, animals, and fertility. He is found in places all over Europe and is usually depicted with red hair, pale skin, and disguised in leaves.
Thanks PETA

Cynthia :

Happy October everybody! : )
I am going to be Pippi Longstocking! She's my favorite to dress up as....I'm always surprised at all the reactions I get on the freeway to and from work : ) I use a hanger bent over my head (a la arrow-through-the head idea) and braid my hair around it, then spray it orange....and add freckles :D

Cori :

I'm going to be Little Miss Muffet (complete with tuffet attached to the back of my dress) and my boyfriend is going to be the spider who sat down beside me. :0)

Oscar Luis Galvan :

My friends and myself will be naughty catholic school boys.

jesse :

i am gonna be a stuffed tofurky

Yulanda :

i will myself this halloween - pretty scary

Dawn :

We are going as chickens, and we are taking our 3 well behaved chickens around the block with us (they love riding in a wagon) while my 4 year old daughter trick or treats- asking for donations instead of candy for a local charity

P.S. chickens are strictly pets, we rescued them from being sold at Easter. They will get into our wagon and squawk until I go out and pull them around the yard.

By the way… Last month when we thought one of our girls had flown the coop, we posted lost chicken signs, and went door to door looking for her. So, the neighbors know us as the chicken people anyway. Dressing the part is appropriate.

Bridget :

I've been vegan for about 8 months. I am constantly forwarding PETA's anti-fur emails to friends, writing letters to companies your organization exposes, etc.

In appreciation for irony, I am going as Cruella De Vil. My sister has a white chihuahua (rescued from the streets of a Texas border town!) that will be painted with black spots to accompany me as my dalmatian. Of course, my long white coat is a cheapo faux fur coat. But I will still look evil as can be!

Alex :

I have decided to be either Sally from Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas, a cute bunny rabbit or the bride from Bride of Chucky. I would love to recieve this vegan candy because I have no idea where I could find them here where I live. If I don't win this contest I would love if you could tell me where I could get some. Thanks and Happy Halloween!!! ..^V^

alyssa :

i'm going to be the crazy cat lady from the simpsons.

Sofie :

Hi, I'm Sofie. For Halloween, I'm going to break the bottom of a plastic hanger, put it around my waist, and go as a hanger. Or, I'll find a puffy white coat and go as a marshmallow. A vegan marshmallow, of course. ;-)

furia :

I'm going to be Global Warming
Dressed in black a large earth will be around my mid-drift. Coming up from my feet are going to be large flames. ala Joan of Arc

Jackie :

I have 3 children. My six year old is going to be a ballerina, my four year old is going to be a bride, and my two year old is going to be a pirate. I would love to introduce my kids to healthier treat...especially after reading about Mars Inc. Thank you for the contest!

Luke Frazier :

If I could, I would definitely be a perfect Godzilla. It's already a guy in a suit, so I think I could pull it off.


If only I was 40 stories tall...

kavetta :

Well I am going to be a matching coffin witch with my three year old daughter. Where I live in Kansas it is really difficult to find vegan items, let alone vegan candies! We love candy and love it even more if it is vegan!

Nancy :

I teach 1st grade and our county has decided that Halloween is not PC, so no halloween at school, but in the past I use to wear Werewolf gloves under a sweater, and when the kids came in and said what was up with my hands, I would tell them that they always look like that in the morning and that i forgot to shave on that particular morning!! Keep in mind i work with 6-7 year olds so most of them believed me!!!
then around lunch I would take them off and tell them i shaved while they were at lunch!!
Fun!

Nicole :

As much as I dig trailmix, I could go for some yummy vegan candy!

I am going to be a disco ball made entirely out of recycled materials.

LOVE!!

Emilia :

My friends and I are going to be Captain Planet and the Planeteers. I'm going to be "heart". Because the character who had the power of heart had a pet monkey, by baby sister is going to dress as a monkey so I can take her trick-or-treating.

Hayley :

I'm still debating on if I'll wear a costume, but if I do it will be some type of farm animal. My mini-dachshund, Gretchen is going to be a chicken and my beagle, Bixby is going to be a pig. They look adorable in their costumes and they like wearing them! I might be a goat or a horse... it's hard telling! We are supporting farm animals.

Liv :

My friends and I are going as the Palin family. I'm playing Sarah herself and I'll carry a fake rifle, and other Palin trademarks. My friends are all going to be her family members, complete with Bristol's redneck BF!

Christina :

My fiance and I are going to be John Lennon and Yoko Ono, and we're going to carry signs that say "Peace" and "War is Over." Although we've seen it done before, we think it's especially topical during election season to call attention to one of the main issues--seeking a peaceful resolution to the war in Iraq.

Cynthia Stewart :

I will be dressing as a cat scratching post this Halloween: a snagged tee-shirt with shredded jeans and slippers. It'll be easy, because that's my usual at-home outfit. I even have some real cat scratches and punctures on my arms and legs.

Anonymous :

I am going to be Sally from the Nightmare Before Christmas.

Katelyn :

I am a 15 year old vegan (for two months on november 1st) and this halloween i am going to be either an eighties girl or a harajuku girl.
Eighties girl: i will get neon green pumps, big thick tacky bangles (braclets), a big neon green shirt that hangs over on shoulder with a neon pink tank, tight neon green pants, my hair will be a sideways pontail teased, and lime green make up. (me and my friend choose this, she choose pink as her fav color and i choose green so she will have pink neon big shirt with green tank and i will be opposite, but matching with a neon green big shirt and neon pink tank)
Harajuku girl: i will just go crazy with neon colors and black and from scratch make my own costume (it will be second hand harajuku since i am making my own). it will mostly likely have a tutu type skirt with bright colored mesh fabric to make it "poofy" and have a black over piece of material that makes a upside down V to reveal the colors, and a black shirt that is sleeveles and has slits in it that reveal a neon green sleeveless shirt sewed on the back. My pants will be black stretch material that have slits down them, too, with the neon green fabric sewn on the back. Then I will take sleeves and start them halfway down my arm (so my shoulders are showing) and they will be fitted til my elbow, which will then be angel sleeve (when it is huge around the arm), and be cut at the bottom to the elbow with neo green fabric sewn on the inside and neon green bows at the outside, top. And have fun make up, that is bright, and my hair will be tipped with the green.

Franni :

This Halloween I'm going to go crazy for what I'm going to be. I'm going to put on a bunch of colorful bracelets. Some pink, others black and others with colorful sparkles!! I might put on some hot pink or electric blue nail polish (No-Miss brand). I'll put on some black eyeliner and probably some black eyeshadow. And the rest of my clothes would either be purple, black or orange depending on what I have that day. Halloween is the best day ever!! It's the day where you get to be creative as you can be!!! XD

Emily Dryden :

I am a High School student and my friends always give me a hard time for being a Vegetarian! So.....i'm going to show them and dress up as broccoli!!

Debbie :

I am going to be a big ole' baby for Halloween this year. Unfortunately, I am just now finding out how healthy a vegetarian diet can be, so I am not yet at a heathly weight. My daughter has asked me to go with her when she trick-or-treats (she is only 9 years old). I know this is not original or creative, but I do want to learn more about the vegetarian way. I can hopefully pass on the word about healthy foods and candy should I win this package. Thank you!
Debbie

Bridgette KolesarWilliams :

Hi,
I just want to tell you that I have received your email for years. And your videos have convinced me to become vegan. I have been so for the last 3 months. I am going to Be the 50's character Vampyra.

Nique :

Me and my friends are dressing up as a giant salad. I'm going to be a Tomato drenched in ranch dressing. we also have the lettuce, the cucumber slice, a carrot (this ones the cutest because it's my boyfriend lol) and a cruton lol. I feel we're just good spirited 18-19 yr olds. Its gonna be great.

Heather Pelham :

My husband, friends, and I are going as Alice in Wonderland characters. I will be Alice, my husband is the Mad Hatter, my brother is the white rabbit, and his girlfriend is the doormouse. My best friend will be the Queen of Hearts. Seven other friends will be the march hare, the cheshire cat, the caterpillar, tweedle dee, tweedle dum, the walrus, and the carpenter. It's going to be a big group :)

Zac and Kristine :

We have an obese orange tabby cat named Dexter. Dexter has a lot of personallity, but I shouldn't go into that here... Anyway, one of his favorite pastimes is looking crazily and the ceiling and meowing at the "ghosts" that he sees up there. So for Halloween, Dexter is going to be dressed as a big fat pumpkin (he likes to greet trick-or-treaters) and Kristine and I will be dressed as his ghost friends!

Kitsa Tsivoulas :

My children would love those healthy treats. My son is going to look like his sister and my daughter is going to look like her brother.

Angela :

I am a nurse in physical rehab. and for Halloween I will be going to work as a 'patient'.

I hope it makes our patients feel like they are not alone and I understand what it's like to be a patient. Happy Halloween!

tracy heyer :

The kids are dressing up as power rangers!

Mara :

I am going to be Horton, the elephant from Dr. Seuss' "Horton Hears A Who" and my daughter is going as a "Who" named Dr. Mary Lou LaRue.

I felt it appropriate to go as Horton as I've been aggressively campaigning against the Carson & Barnes Circus and protested when it came to my town.

Horton, the elephant, had compassion for the Who's and saved them from death.

We humans have an opportunity to help Horton's family and friends. We need to work night and day for their freedom from their hellish imprisonment where they are pimped for human profit and treated like property instead of feeling, sentient beings.


Kasey :

I'm planning on being Pippi Longstocking.

Kelsey :

My bff and I are going as Hairy-Kate and Trashley Trollsen. I'm going to be Hairy-Kate. We are going to dress in 'popular' troll clothes, maybe sew up some faux fur wraps (that's why they're trolls, they wear fur), and we're gonna hold what they hold in every pic you see of them, a cigarette (unlit) and a Starbucks coffee cup! It's gonna be soooo much fun.


I know what I'm gonna be next year too(what I wanted to be this year, then I had the Trollsen idea)! I'm going to be Alice Cullen from the Twilight Saga!! Can't wait!! I LOVE Halloween!!!!!!!!!!

markell nault :

I figured I will already be wearing the foot boots,since I can't wear regular shoes yet. And I will also wear silver leggings, a silver sequin dress, silver spray painted body and hair, and a silver bobble-antenna headband :) happy halloween!

Jessica :

This candy looks so good I think I might have to dress up as it!! I wonder if my dog would look good as a vegan caramel...

Ryan :

I almost always tell people that I'm dressing up as a (vegan) wearwolf.
It's an easy costume, being that the moon is rarely ever full on Halloween.

courtney :

My husband and I are going to be "wonder twin powers". He's going in the form of an eagle and I will be a bucket of water. The kids are still undecided, but I'm wondering if they will want to be seen with us when the hear us saying, "wonder twin powers - activate!" ?

sarah daus :

i work at the haunted house BLOOD MANOR in NYC, and i'll be working on halloween, jumping out of a shower in a towel, covered in blood, with cockroaches in my hair!!

Josee :

This year I'm going to be a Veteranian, so I can pretend to save animals lives. I know that I do by being Vegan but if I was a Vet I would be able to do lots more.
I never tasted Vegan candies. Mmmmmmmm they sounds yummy. :)

Sorry for my badly English!

Nicky :

My daughter is getting married on Halloween and her daughter will be dressed as a flower because she will be the flower girl and her son will be dressed as a bear because he will be the ring bearer. I think it's going to be a delightful and wonderful Halloween wedding.

Denise :

I plan on being a greaser. You know, like Ponyboy from "The Outsiders". It's not going to be that hard. Ripped up clothing, makeup, and a wig that a friend is lending me. This Halloween is going to be awesome!!!

Meabh :

I can't wait for Halloween! me and my son are going to dress up as big evil vegetables with big pointy teeth. I have made the costumes myself and we are very excited! I will be the parsnip and my 8 year old the carrot! We will then parade ourselves around Belfast (N.Ireland)Watch the fireworks and then end up at a very spooky party and I will also make signs to hang around our necks with Peta and the website address written on them : )

Jessica Ambrey :

Hey, I'm going as a vicar in a tutu. It's from the Smiths song 'Vicar in a Tutu'. I'm going to learn the lyrics off by heart and sing it to anyone who asks why. I'm hoping they'll just assume I'm insane though, because I'm sure I'll get tired of that..

Bee Wright :

I am going as a baked potato ^_^

John :

I am going out as Pam Anderson and going to use melons to enhance the costume with a sign on them "eat melons save an animal".

Catarina :

Helo!

Well, in my country we don't have halloween. On the 1st Nevember, kids go around their village and ask for candies or money (it depends of the place) but they don't wear costumes.

So this year I will only have two littler ponytails (to look young) and a big smile (to look cute) and hopefully I can get more money... That's the perfect costume!! :D

KLoe :

This Halloween me and my friends will be making a 'beast' suit that will be made to fit all four of us in and then we have to walk around in it! It should be quite funny to see! I am sure how we all going to walk around in it, I expect it will be more of a shuffle. Also my sister is dressing up as a killer Care Bear and wearing a pink furry hat of mine! It even has ears! =]

Rob Eves :

Not particuarly original but I shall once again be dressed as DEATH! Mwuhahaha!

shannon :

my boyfriend and i will be in vegas, so we're going as mario and princess peach (or princess toadstool, depending on how far back you remember)! he grew up with old-school nintendo, so he's actually excited to dress up. he even grew a goatee in anticipation of shaving it down to just the mustache on halloween, but he got tired of the itching :( if you're in vegas, keep an eye out for us!

Joanna Bennett :

I am going to dress up in glitter and gold and go as a sweet! Just don't try eating me!

Hali :

So if it wasn't freaking freezing outside, i'd probably go with the whole naked PETA theme. Maybe paint myself like a panda bear. I think it'd be pretty killer. But instead I'm going as batgirl. It's a good compromise. I'm pretty excited. I just hope people still give 17 year olds candy! :]

JA :

My husband works at a retirement home and every year all the staff dress up in costumes for the day. The residents really get a kick out of it. Last year we did him up as a pirate, this year he going as a devil (but a friendly vegetarian one!)

anja bazen :

I'm a Christian, so I don't do anything about Halloween, but the treats sure look delicious ( licky-da-lips), but probably not available in The Netherlands...
I'll probably have to content myself with a nice bar of cheep chocolate instead..... Anja Bazen,The Netherlands.

Frana :

well me and all my friends are dressing up as 'skelanimals', so were going to write the names of each skelanimal and put them in a hat and then make the costume for the one we pick out.

JENNIFER NOSEWORTHY :

Teyla from Stargate Atlantis

Sara :

My baby is going to be a butterfly and my toddler is going as a butterfly. My husband and I are both going as trees since we are tall to hold the little ones.

Mary :

I was thinking about being a "dark" version of Alice from Alice in Wonderland. It's such a creative story, and I thought it would be a sweet twist to it, perfect for Halloween.

Anonymous :

batman

Jennifer Mrotek :

I am going to be Ingrid Newkirk... Rock on!! :)

Caroline Israel :

Hi Amy. I was also raised in the South (Arkansas), and it during my upbringing that I developed quite a sweet tooth! I'm 40 now but still enjoy dressing up for Halloween. I always wear a cow costume my mother made me about 15 years ago and carry a sign from door to door that says, "Eat Tofu!". So my trick-or-treating serves two purposes--fun and education.

sarah :

I'm going as a gypsy.

Rowe :

What a great contest! I love Halloween and dressing up and getting lots of candy is fun at any age! My boyfriend and I will be going as Two Peas in a Pod. I am making the costumes and hopefully they will look as cool as I envision them.

Jess :


I'm going to a party with a group of friends, we're being vintage Clue! We've got Mrs. Peacock, Mrs. White, Ms. Scarlet, Prof. Plum, Col. Mustard, a set of dice, and I'm going as the detective! We do have a Mr. Green too, being played by a girl friend of mine, she decided instead of a vinatge green suit, she wanted to make a green pawn costume! All the suspects will carry the weapons (lead pipe, candle stick etc..) and I'm to walk around with a check list asking questions all night....

at the end of the night another friend will show up with a giant manilla envelope with all the whodunit information :)

Courtney Kuch :

This year I decided to go back to my roots, literally. I'm going to be Mother Nature!!! I'm using fake flowers and fake plant leaves in a variety of shapes and colours and attaching them to an old skirt and vest. I was thinking about using twigs (collected from my nearby park and backyard) to make a nest for a bird from the craft store... And painting my face with NATURAL and ANIMAL FREE substances to look extra convincing!

Raechel Taylor :

Pre- Happy Halloween!!
This year I plan on going all out an making my gipsy pirate costume to include a full length skirt, puffy poet's shirt, half corset, and full length cape with a convertible hood. It is the really pretty ones that ladies wear in the movies; it has the option of laying flat against my back. Even better, I have the choice of buying my own fabric, so I have a pretty good idea of it being cruelty free and eco friendly!!!!!

Cassandra :

On halloween I'm dressing up as a "damsel in distress" (complete with too-high-to-run-in heels and too-short dress) and my best friend (who is a guy) is going to be a villian. :)
Totally fun.

Brian :

I am going to be the Jolly Green Giant or Sprout!

Berta :

We as a family are going as the Adams Family Values clan down to the Hand and Lurch. A co-worker is also joining our Family she is coming as the witch (sorry I can't remenber her name-the witch's name). Our daughters friend is going to join us as the dragon. We are also including our hydrid as a Family member. Its going to be our Castle. It is going to be fantastic. The school our children go to is really into trunk or treat so we will be all be doing that.

Heather :

I am going as LIndsay Lohan & my male friend, JOsh is going to be Samantha Ronson!

Blake :

dressed in white, carrying a piece of trash, with a black name tag that says "white trash." Easy enough, and very literal!

Anne :

My boyfriend and I thought about this for a long time, because we don't want to buy anything new (we believe only in recycled clothing) and we are super busy so nothing too time consuming!

So he thinks I should be a button! Because I'm "as cute as a button". I'll cut out large circle with the cardboard to use to make a rattie pen (so my ratties can play all day! :D) and cover it with old fabric, and poke 4 holes in the middle. Yay!

Matt :

My fiancee and I are going as Shaggy and Daphne, because lots of people tell me I look like Shaggy to begin with. And like Shaggy, I believe a dog is man's best friend and I love to snack!

Claire Howe :

Hi!

I'll be going as a trashy novelist, complete with large, 1980's bifocal, transitional lens glasses, an "inappropriate for the day-time" neglige, a cocktail, and equally "inappropriate for the day-time" pearls and makeup. I also have a book, appropriately titled, "Sultry, Sweaty Summer Nights" with my picture and a brief, fictious biography on the inner sleeve.

Happy Halloween!

Kristen :

I'm going to be Amy Winehouse for halloween. Hahaha. :)
I'm going to get the wig and have the nice rat's nest on my head xD and dress in dark skinnies and a white wife beater like her. oh and the makeup too! :) Everything minus the drugs and the nasty boyfriend.. ew.

Sandra :

These treats sound delicious!! I am going to be a bag of vegan jelly beans. I can send you pictures after Halloween, if you would like!! I can't wait!!

Jaime :

On Halloween, I will be the Birthday girl, as it is my birthday. I will be 18.

Lisa Cammalleri :

Mary,
I have just recently become a vegan within the past year. All my friends and family members seem to think that without meat, they would stave. To prove them wrong i have decided to go as a Recipe Book.
I have gotten so many great recipes from your website, so it just made sense! On my back, im going to have a long stick as a bind and two cardboard flaps as the cover. Im also going to had out the amazing recipes that I have collected over the year to spread the word!

Sam & Chris :

This year we are going to be Adam and Lawrence from the original SAW (we love this series!). We are going to have shackles around our ankles, grubby clothes, malnourished looking makeup, and of course be carrying hand saws (danger-free saws).

Happy Halloween PeTA!

i really, really wanted to be ann boleyn for halloween. but the only costume i could (that was affordable) find was a brown dress... so i am going to be a fallen angel instead. back to the usual old fishnets and pleather skirt. i hope to find wings that don't use real feathers!

Lucinda :

Im going as Synyster Gates from Avenged Sevenfold :D

And as a conjoined twin with my sister to another party xxx

Jennifer M :

My husband is going to be "Five Little Monkeys Jumping On A Bed." I made the costume. He's wearing a sheet with a hole cut in it for his head, and a pillow tied to his head. There are five small toy monkeys attached to the front of the sheet. A pillowcase is pinned on the back, and it says "Mama, call the doctor!"

Jennie Backman :

A ferret

In one of the early episodes of Family Guy, Stewie the baby thinks about having a "Sexy Party" complete with him in a sailor suit with women in lingerie dancing around. I'm going to dress as the sailor and my husband and some of our friends are dressing in lingerie for the sexy dancers. Comes complete with theme song.

What I'd love to do is to become ghost of the future for the night and show the guy in charge of Mars a better world where animal abuse and cruelty were things of the past.

Anonymous :

I am dressing up as Dr. Dakota Block from the movie Planet Terror. My shitzu, Gilbert, is going as the Joker. It's so adorable. We've put our own costumes together because they seem to come out so much better if you do it this way instead of buying something already made. I'd love to win this candy to hand out to the kids in our neighborhood! We have no organic candy in our stores here. Thanks, Deven

Patricia Herrick :

I'll be going as Tiana's Grandma, (which I am I'll just put on my regular clothes, get out my walker, and I'm all set. We have eight cats, one of which we picked from a litter in 1995. The others were 'dropped off' or came from a litter soon after. We have managed to have all but two spayed at free clinics

Elise :

I'm thinkging I'm going to be my own doppleganger XD
I'm just going to wear a fake moustache.
Though I might dress up as some demonic creature and scare kids around the neighborhood XD

Ella :

It's a toss up: 1.(weather permitting ... no pun intended)I am hoping to work in meterology, so it will come as no surprise to friends when I show up as:"Partly Cloudy With A Chance of Showers": I will be wearing my husband's blue scrubs with cotton balls pasted for the partial cloud effect, the piece de resistance?? Our son's super soaker for those who have the "chance" of experiencing the partial shower.
or 2: for my husband's hockey team party we will go as ceiling fans: we have had "go ceilings" printed in big gold letters on T-shirts, and will don foam fingers, pom poms and a horn ... there will be some initial explaining to do, but it will be loads of fun!!!

Sabrina Hines :

I am going as a Day of the Dead Senorita. I am in the process of making and sewing my own elaborate Flamenco-type dress in red satin, with ruffles, and black lace trim and off the shoulder straps. I am going to paint my face like a detailed Day of the Dead skull and complete the look with my 40's swing dancing heels and big sparkly black rose in my red hair. Anyone know a vegan recipe for sugar candy skulls?

Steph :

I am going to be a booze carrying blood stained, swathed in fur (fake) Mary Kate trollsen =D I am getting friends in on the act too.

Molly Clay :

Hi there, I love your website and I find it is so hard to find vegan candy where I live. It would be a real treat if i win. Anyway me and my friends will be the whole gang from the new Indian Jones movie. I will be agent Irina Spalko ( the bad girl with the russian accent) it will be tons of fun and an interesting experience

Morgan :

im going as a vampire oxo cube :D

VEGGI POWER

Nancy :

I've never dressed up for Halloween before because I was never allowed to. But this year, I'm 16 and I'm old enough to think for myself. So I'm going to dress up as a ballerina. I've always wanted to be a ballerina since I was a toddler, I would always copy ballet dancers' poses in books and on television. I've always wanted to take up ballet lessons but I couldn't afford it. So this year, I'm going to make my dream come true for one night. :)

Shoshanna Calamari :

I am going to be the joker from The Dark Knight when he's in the hospital dressed up as a nurse & my two kids are going to be gangsters with a twist, they're going to be dead zombie gangsters with fake bullets holes in their faces & makeup to make them look dead.

julia :

My boyfriend and I are going as Lydia and Beetlejuice.

Briana :

Halloween is going to be fun this year :)

I'm going as a scene queen

mmm vegan candy sounds good

Jacky :

My best friend Anush is from Armenia and she goes there every year to visit her family who still lives there. the other day she was telling me about the tourists and how they dress. then I came up with the idea to be Armenian tourists for Halloween.

Sarah :

This year I will be trick or treating as a bunch of grapes. I will be wearing purple skinny jeans from american apparel along with a purple sweater adorned with purple ballons, and some fake leaves and a stem on my head. Even though I'm 16 I think my trick or treat for unicef box may also score me some treats :D

Beth Roesler :

I am going to be a big beautiful tree for Halloween, but the catch is, I am making it. I am not very skilled when it comes to arts and crafts, as I have boyish tendencies, but I sure will try! I bought an organic cotton dress that is long, flowing, and brown. Then I am going to get some brown long evening gloves. I plan to go to a craft store and purchase leaves and fake plants (not made out of silk, of course!) and wrap them around my arms or "tree limbs". :D

I just wanted to say thanks for making it so easy to find a list of Vegan candy. Every year my girlfriend wants to give out little toys or something because finding Vegan candy can be such a chore. I have missed out on Halloween candy for the last time. I will be doing the shopping this year!

Sussan :

A picnic table with veg food and a company of hungry ants. Rather a heavy costume but so worth it when people look at you hungry and nostalgic for family picnics. :)

Simona :

Hello Peta, I'm a big fan!! This year I am dressing up as a Ghostbuster, my boyfriend is going to be a ghost, and Snoopy my labrador will be Slimer:)

Danelle :

Ive always loved halloween, this year, since ive got money..im going to dress up as a cow being slaughtered, walk around and let people know what it looks like and what they go through, it will bring attention and lost of questions, its something i do everyday anyway...just halloween gives me a reason to show it..im also throwing a "help the animals" halloween party...so the candy would really help...im 22 and i have been a vegan for 14 years, i want to make people realize its wrong in as many ways as i can :)

So, for Halloween, my friends and I are going to dress up in bright collored neopn pink leggings with very very high knee socks with 2 stripes at the top (colored of course!) and wearing silver sequin tank tops, and we are going to rat/poof our hair until they cannot be poofed anymore! Our hair will be very ratted with tonss of hairspray! And, we are going to give each other raccoon eyes, which we use black eyeliner and put it all around our eyes A LOT! Very far around the eyes to look like raccoon eyes! aww how cute! :D
and then we are going to wear mocasins, paint our nails dark purpleish, tons of 80's jewelry; necklaces and bracelets!
We are going to top it off with just 1 little bow in our puffball hair! I love to be out there, the one everyone takes a 2nd look at!
And always, of course, our makeup and hairspray, everything will be NO-ANIMAL TESTING, and CRULETY FREE! :D


LOVE YOU!

I work with children and youth at a church (and all the kids know that I am vegan and what that means to me).

Then I bought a cute little rubber mouse and I use it as a way to tell people about animal testing and how horrible it is. I'm hoping to make a big impact!

Cheryl Dant :

I was thinking of being a vet!!!! Or maybe having one of my kids be one. We have 3 dogs and a cat. I think it would be neat to take at least one of them with us. We live in a small town, and they would love all the attention from the people we pass. Let them get in on the action too!!!! Halloween should be for everyone!!!!

Misty :

I shall be a sexy samurai, who fights off the evil, animal-slaughtering ninjas.

Hey guys! This Halloween I'm going to be a mitochondria! Originally, I was going to be a space invader and have a raygun and everything, but my AP biology teacher spawned the wonderful idea of being a mitochondria instead! I'm planning on incorporating a bunch of vintage fabric scraps into the different parts of the organelle, but I'm not quite sure how I'll get my costume to hold its shape.
Anyways, I guess I'll have fun this year painting the town red in my nerdy mitochondria costume! :D

By the way, a mitochondria is a cell organelle that looks like this:

cars, all kinds of things) that I've "forgotten" and that are in total disarray in my "darkness"!

Annie Nguyen :

For Halloween, I'm going to be APATHETIC. I won't vote in the general elections. That's the most popular costume, don't you agree? (This is merely a humor post. Don't take it too seriously.)

Carrie-Lee Snooks :

It'll be sweet. unfortunately, im probably not going out because ill have to hand out candy (im 14), in a small town, theres not a huge chance ill get much vegan stuff anyways :(

I'm going as a Biker Chick - an earth friendly, green-thinking road biker on a mission to wipe cancer off the face of this planet. Check out my webpage to see how you can help with this goal and to learn more about Team in Training. http://pages.teamintraining.org/uny/tucson08/rthomas

To bring Autumn into the costume, she will have garland leaves sewed onto her dress and hat to make her the ultimate Royal Autumn Victorian Girl!!

Alissa :

Well my daughter couldn't decide between dressing up as a cat or a bat so mummy's getting out the sewing machine and she'll be a catbat.

Hi!
I am a GED teacher for an adult literacy program. Our annual fundraiser, The Alphabet Affair, is celebrating the letter "o" this year on October 25, so I am celebrating Halloween early this year. I am going as "October" - I am making a mask of fabric fall-colored leaves, a "wig" of ivy leaves and vines and an Octoberfest-style costume using leaves and artificial harvest fruits (apples, grapes) and veggies (corn, gourds) as accessories.

Elizabeth Baer :

I'll be with my four kids for Halloween.

ky2here :

I am hoping to do Caribou Barbie - I'm game for anything except making fun of her Down's Syndrome baby. We'll see, I'll need to find faux antlers for the collar of the cape. I can round up a fake AK47 and strap a bible on there. We'll see.

Ian :

I haven't dressed for Halloween since 2005 and my female friend friend from Florida will make me get back into the spoirit of things.Last outfit was weird for me but have no clue yet as to what I want to dress as but was thinking to bring PETA into the costume somehow.I will think of something interesting with a little help from my friend.

Rick Miller :

I am a non-drinker going to a party with a lot of drunks. (I will be the DD) My costume is a breathalyzer. I will leave it to your imagination where the tube you have to blow on is.

Cynthia :

I would love to win this candy because on Halloween night, I am not going trick ar treating beacuse I will do a funsdraiser to raise money so I can donate it to Peta for its wonderful causes. The fundraiser will also be like a party because I will be on a small stage asking for donations and explaining my cause. I will also be giving out posters and leaflets to the people that attend about how KFC tortures chickend and the most recent cause, since its getting chilly outside how to save animals by not buying or wearing any fur or leather boots or jackets. I realy want this candy! I hope with all my heart that I win! Thank you sooo much if I do win!

Aaron :

I'm Aaron and i'm 18. Even though everyone is probably gonna be him, i want to go as V from the movie v for vendetta cause that was a pretty amazing movie and we never know if something like that can still happen again in our world. Though i'm probably not gonna buy the whole outfit cause its too expensive($60!!), i'll just buy the mask and a cape and daggers to make it look the same but coller lol.

My daughter is going for Halloween as a murdered Dorothy from Wizard of Oz. She has the traditional costume of it with basket including Toto, with her hair in ribboned bunches, the has her face whitened with a trickle of blood coming from her nose and mouth. She completes the look with an axe through the head hairband.

Kim :

I am referred to as "the cat lady" b/c I have rescued and found homes for so many homeless cats. This year for Halloween, I am going to be a homeless, sickly kitty who wants to be adopted into a loving home. Around my neck, I am going to wear a ratty collar with a LARGE id tag that says: "If we all do a little, there will only be a little to do. Please give homeless animals a 2nd chance at life." I hope this message gets across to many people who can make a difference in an any animal's life. Thank you for the contest! I am excited to try the vegan candy! I have a major sweet tooth! : )

halie pruitt :

i am 14 and have been a vegan for almost a year now. for the last few years ive been really cool costumes and almost won costume contests. last year i was a bag of jelly beans, the year before that i was a shower, great costume idea by the way. this year im either going to be a person from those ipod commercials, you wear all black and paint face black and then bring your mp3 w/ your head phones, or i want to do some thing to protest against animal killing and abuse so i might be a ghost of a cow or something like that

Anna :

Eve :

I'm going to a Slayer show dressed as a whoopie cushion

Gillian Hunt :

I'll be dressing up with my boyfriend as an old couple one night, Barbie and Ken another night, and then we're going as 70s disco dancers another night! I cant wait!! Trick or Treasting is always awesome, but since I turned vegan I have to give most of the candy away! I'd love to win one of the awesome vegan halloween prizes!!!

Perri Kapp :

I am going to be Frida Kahlo because she is so inspirational and cool and her home country celebrates dia de los muertos (which is really cool)!

I plan on dressing up as the ghost of Edgar Allan Poe (muhaha...).

For this, I shall carry "The Works of Edgar Allan Poe" (which I own) around, pin and part my hair to replicate his own hairstyle, wear my grandpa's black coat, my collared shirt, a raven to decorate the shoulder, and draw a mustache on the face. Hell, I'll even tote my plastic skeleton around....

I can't decide if I want to be a one night stand (put cardboard around my middle with a tablecloth on it. Glue lipstick, pantyhose, and an empty condom wrapper. Wear a lampshade on my head, and voila, I'm a one night stand.) I went as an outhouse about 20 years ago, and that was a hit, so maybe I'll create another outhouse costume, haven't decided.

Hannah Krohn :

Hi, I'm Hannah. This Halloween a couple of my friends and I are going trick-or-treating as the Candyland characters. I think it would be really fun if we would win because, we could show a lot of people that just because you are vegan doesn't mean that you can't still celebrate the holidays like everybody else, or that you can't have candy. I also think that it would be cool to win because it will defiantly go along with our costumes. :)

Esperanza Dodge :
