Seller's description

Oh no! A friendly little ghost hid the Halloween candy!

This personalized Halloween Treasure Hunt turns your home into a spooky-fun trail of riddle clues. Kids follow the clues from spot to spot until they find the candy stash. Type your children's names and choose your hiding spots online, and the whole hunt is ready to print in a few minutes. It works on any phone or computer.

WHAT'S INSIDE
★ A spooky-fun letter from the ghost (or the Jolly Jack-o'-Lantern), with your children's names and the first clue
★ Riddle clue cards, 6 per page with cut lines. Each clue leads to the next hiding spot.
★ A "You found it!" card to leave with the candy
★ A grown-ups' hiding plan that shows which card goes where, with the answers
★ A "Candy found!" certificate for each child
★ A "Do not open until Halloween" sign for your candy cupboard (optional)

THREE AGE LEVELS
★ Little Monsters (ages 4 to 6): picture clues with a short rhyme, no reading needed
★ Big Kids (ages 7 to 10): rhyming riddles
★ Teens and grown-ups: harder riddles with a twist

PERSONALIZE IT
★ Up to 6 children's names on the letter and certificates
★ A ghost or the Jolly Jack-o'-Lantern, with the name you choose
★ 6 to 12 clues, from 30 hiding spots around the home: the fridge, the washing machine, under a pillow, the bathtub, the bookshelf, the shoe rack, the mailbox, the pumpkin by the door and more
★ Your own hiding spots and your own riddles
★ A P.S. on the letter

HOW IT WORKS
1. Download the files and open the "Start Here" PDF.
2. Go to the link and unlock it with your Etsy order number and name.
3. Type the names and pick your hiding spots. The preview updates as you type.
4. Print, cut out the cards and hide each one where the hiding plan says.
5. Hand over the letter and let the hunt begin!

THE PHONE HUNT (included in this listing)
A magic code prints on the letter and on every clue card. Kids scan each code with a phone or tablet camera (no app needed), and the ghost shows the next clue on the screen, reads it aloud, gives hints and throws a candy party at the end, with a certificate and the time it took. You can keep the riddles printed on the cards too, so the hunt still works without a phone. The phone hunt includes the Halloween you buy it; renew any later year for $4.99 through our Etsy shop (no auto-renew).

ALSO INCLUDED
The complete 20-page fill-it-in-by-hand version, in US Letter and A4, in full color and ink saver. It has every clue card for all 30 spots at all three levels, blank cards for your own clues, a blank hiding plan, the letter, a certificate and the sign.
