Milky Way Caramel Apple
If you're known to go elbow-deep digging for a Milky Way or Milky Way Midnight in any candy jar, brace yourself: Milky Way Caramel Apple minis are returning to stores nationwide. They've already been spotted at Walmart.
Hershey's Candy Corn Mini Bars
As soon as you slice open the wrapper, you'll be hit with a wave of ultra-sweet, candy corn flavor that's surely not dentist-approved—but will surely satisfy any sugar craving. Each white chocolate-y creme bar is speckled with orange and yellow candy bits.
Sour Patch Zombie Kids
These treats are the same sour-sweet candy you know and love, only in orange and purple—and undead. No word whether they'll come to life and eat your brain, but we're pretty sure you can take them before they can get close to your gray matter.
Yoo-Hoo Candy Bars
R.M. Palmer is in the business of making your wildest dreams come true—provided your craziest fantasies involve turning Yoo-Hoo into chocolates (and um, whose doesn't?!). You can buy them in full-size, 4.5-ounce bars—and be the hero of the block—or in bulk bags of mini-bars. Find them in most major grocery stores.
Triple Chocolate Kit Kats
What's better than chocolate? More chocolate. Kit Kat knows what's up—these mini bars feature chocolate wafers sandwiching chocolate creme, then coated in milk chocolate.
Zombie Food Chocolate Caramels
Finally, a more socially acceptable treat for the Walkers in your life. These brain-, heart- and foot-shaped chocolates are filled with a gooey red caramel that oozes out as soon as you bite into them, so your queasy friend who can't even walk past Spencer's at Halloween will probably pass out when he sees you eat one.
Reese's Nutrageous Bars
Reese's Pumpkins will always hold a special place in our hearts, but if you're looking to mix things up, Hershey's sells snack-sized Nutrageous bars—a peanut-butter log covered in caramel, peanuts and milk chocolate.
Halloween Mix Starburst
We all know that red and pink are the superior Starburst flavors, but this Halloween sparks a whole new debate. This special edition of the candy features blackberry, blueberry, mango and cherry-kiwi flavors. Better hunt down a friend with opposing tastes so you can do a few tradesies.
3 Muskefears Bars
This candy is for everyone who likes a little Halloween spirit—but doesn't want anyone messing with their favorite sweets. It's the same mini 3Musketeers bars you've sworn your undying devotion to, only the nougat is tinted red. (Editor's Note: We got really excited at first, when we thought it might be red velvet-flavored. Womp womp.)
Pumpkin Spice Caramel Ghirardelli Squares
If you can't get enough pumpkin spice, we've found one more way to satisfy your cravings: These chocolate squares are filled with pumpkin-y, cinnamon-y caramel. You can only find them at Walmart this year.
Caramel Apple Twizzlers
Even avowed licorice haters will want to give these Twizzlers a try: They're apple-flavored and filled with caramel. We repeat: Filled with caramel.
Dove Milk Chocolate Eyeballs
The company that writes sweet nothings on its wrappers is trading affirmations for spooky graphics this fall, with milk chocolates decorated to look like eyeballs and dark chocolates that look like micro-pumpkins. The chocolate's every bit as life-changing as it's always been.
Jolly Rancher Caramel Apple Lollipops
Want all the flavor of a caramel apple without getting gobs of caramel on your face—and, inevitably, in your hair? Try a caramel apple-flavored Jolly Rancher lollipop, sold by the bag at most major grocery stores.
Gummy Boogers
Spotted at Target, these boxes of gummy boogers are sure to gross out your friends. And maybe yourself, too. That texture—yeeesh.
Lindor Ghost Truffles
Don't let the cutesy ghost wrappers fool you—these are some seriously decadent chocolates. Each milk chocolate truffle has a melting, ganache-like white chocolate center.
Halloween Nerds Rope
When trick-or-treating, bigger most definitely equals better—at least when comparing hauls at the end of the night. These foot-long gummy ropes, coated in orange, white and purple Nerds, don't disappoint. You can buy them by the box at CandyWarehouse.com.
Candy Corn M&Ms
As if pecan pie, pumpkin spice and pumpkin spice latte weren't enough, you can also enjoy candy corn-flavored M&Ms. Because the world is a beautiful place.
Gummy Body Parts
Gummy bears are fine and all, and gummy worms are creepy, but on Oct. 31, you've got to step up your game. IT'SUGAR, a candy store chain, understands, and will be selling gummy body parts—everything from brains to severed fingers—in bulk. (It's also your go-to resource for five-pound gummy bears and entire gummy pizzas.)
Caramel Apple Peeps
Peeps set the world into a "fall is coming!" frenzy when it launched Pumpkin Spice Peeps in early August, but don't forget about its other seasonal treats, like candy corn and caramel apple. All three are only available at Target.
Pumpkin Spice Latte Candy Bar
Russell Stover already has chocolates that taste like caramel apple and pumpkin pie, but this year, they're taking things a step further, creating a full-on PSL flavor. A reader on The Impulsive Buy found this gem at Target.
