A Halloween snack mix is so fun to make because you have so many fun options to mix together! I chose some of my family’s favorite ingredients, but here are some other fun mix-ins you could try:

Caramel and cheddar popcorn
Butter popcorn

Where can I find Halloween-shaped pretzels?

I bought the Utz brand Halloween pretzels from Target, but Snyder’s also makes Halloween-shaped pretzels. You can find them at Target, Walmart, membership warehouses, or Amazon.
