Not scary, but kinda cool Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody"


Time for a Halloween "Light-o-Rama"


How about a light show atop of the Empire State Building in New York set to Halloween Music

Halloween Related Restaurant and Fast Food Promotions

Welcome to Day 3 of Countdown to Halloween!

 HA1LOWEEN WHOPPER® SANDWICH at Burger King.

It is a limited time offer at Burger King and described on their website as:

" With A.1.® flavor baked into the black bun. The sandwich is a ¼ lb.* of savory flame-grilled beef topped with melted American cheese, ripe tomatoes, crisp iceberg lettuce, creamy mayonnaise, A.1.® Thick and Hearty Sauce, crunchy pickles, and sliced white onions on a soft sesame seed bun with A.1.® flavor baked into the bun"

I liked it, but thought it needed a little more A1 Sauce and it would have been great - may want to request it or try it with a little ketchup.

Hotel Transylvania 2 Kids Meals at McDonalds

As a tie-in to the recently released animated movie by the same name, McDonalds has some fun, spooky toys in their kids meals.  I got the Mummy and you can wind it up on the back and its legs sidestep to the left.  We have debated it it looks more like the"Electric Slide" or "Saturday Night Fever" disco dance of the late 70's  or "Walk Like an Eygptian" dance of the '80's.  I also see a little "Achy Breaky Heart" line dance action as well.
