Halloween falls on October 31, and these three puzzles cover the best parts of it: carved pumpkins, costumes, friendly ghosts and a bowl of treats by the door. Every puzzle prints on a single page in big, bold capital letters, with the answer key on a second page.
Start with "Halloween Night" if you want a gentle puzzle where every word reads left to right or top to bottom. "Spooky Creatures" and "Trick or Treat" add diagonal words for a little more challenge.
