Visual Description
A small, chubby ghost with little red horns floats cheerfully, holding a lollipop and carrying a pumpkin pail labeled "Trick or Treat" filled with candy. Tiny flame-like sprites hover nearby and a carved jack-o'-lantern sits among scattered sweets on the grass. Two bats fly in front of an orange moon near the top of the image.
