It's Cotton Candy Costume Time!
Cotton candy not compulsory. But costumes are! For Halloween this year there Great Hall has been decorated with oranges and blacks, with drapes down the walls, and hanging pumpkins in every corner. Everywhere you look is Halloween related.
The tables have been removed, and in place there is one long table covered in food, with more pumpkin tasting things than anything else. Homemade, of course, using the content of Hagrid's giant pumpkins! Aside from a few savory nibbles, most of what is provided are sweets/candy.
Honeydukes sweet shop are supporting the event and are using this opportunity to showcase some of their newest products. Everyone's old favorites are there, some tweaked to match the theme, but there are a wide selection of new goodies to try. They are also offering up a new, exclusive drink for students - a magical drink formula that makes the lime green drink taste of whatever the drinker loves the most. So whether you're a strawberry savorer, or a licorice lover, this drink will taste of the thing you love most.
Alongside this, there are punch bowls of juice made to match the Halloween theme (No, you can't spike it *wink wink* with alcohol), and it wouldn't be Halloween without a few apples. Whatever it is you want, you can probably find it. There have been no shortcuts in this event!
So grab some snacks, bop to the beat, or find a dance partner to twirl you 'round the hall. Do whatever you like, but make sure you're costume is looking superb!
