It's the scariest time of the year, Galaxy Cauldronites! Break out the horror flicks and costumes, carve up those pumpkins and dress up in your favorite costume! Halloween is here! But why are costumes worn? Where pumpkins the only things ever carved? And why do we give out candy, anyways? That's what we're here to find out!

Below, you'll find ten multiple choice questions. Guess eight out of ten correctly and win a prize! But wait, you may be thinking-why are there only questions here? Am I just supposed to guess blindly? Let google be your flashlight, as everyone is encouraged to look up the answers on their own!
