Halloween is a fun time where you get to dress up as your favourite scary characters, indulge in the creepy side of life, and try to spook your friends and family.
And while that sounds a bit mean, you can make up for that, as it's also a time where we give little gifts and treats to each other.
Whether that's in the form of actual Halloween gifts or simply little treats for the kids who go trick or treating.
They make a nice counter balance to all the terror and fear that is in the atmosphere!
However, while these gifts and treats are always appreciated, they look so much better when they are given out in something that matches the vibe of the Halloween season.
So take a look at our list of great Halloween treat bags and containers to get some ideas on how to house your little treats and gifts this year.
Now you could always have a go at making these yourself.
But if you're rushed for time or don't fancy getting the glue and scissors out yourself then no problem.
Because there are a vast selection of ready made Halloween treat bags that you can buy in store or online.
So you're covered, whether you want something small to put some candy in, or something bigger to hold a selection of treats.
And here are some of our favourites this year.
Halloween Cellophane Goody Bags
Candy is the most popular treat when it comes to Halloween.
And especially as a treat to give out to kids who come to your door trick and treating.
But instead of just filling a giant bucket with candy and letting the kids help themselves, why not fill individual Halloween goody bags to hand out instead?
You can buy a batch of these goody bags for this with cute Halloween designs (like the ones below).
And the kids will love them, as they get to unwrap their treats like an actual gift.
Halloween Pumpkin Drawstring Treat Pouches
If you like the idea of using individual goody bags, but want to steer clear of cellophane and use material ones instead, you could try these drawstring pouches.
They look really cool, coming in Halloween orange with a scary pumpkin face on the front.
And the kids could also re-use them to store things in afterwards if they like them.
Halloween Cookie Bags
There's no better treat in my eyes than some home made goodies come Halloween time.
So if you're into home baking yourself, you could try these Halloween cookie bags.
These are great, as they come with a range of different designs, and have a self adhesive top so you can open and close them up easily.
And they are just right for individually distributing a batch of your finest home baked cookies to any lucky trick or treaters that come knocking.
Halloween Candy Bags With Stickers
If you'd prefer to put your sweet treats into something a bit more subtle, you can use these patterned candy paper bags instead.
These work well for Halloween, as the orange colour matches the season.
And by using Halloween stickers to close them up with, you can create a classy treat bag for your kids candy.
A combination of candy bags and stickers like the ones below will work nicely.
Halloween Paper Party Treat Bags
Our next set of Halloween treat bags are really well designed, coming in six different colourful Halloween patterns.
And they are also great for candy or cookie treats, as they are similar to Pick n Mix bags that you'd get at the cinema.
So if you want to fit slightly larger candy bars into your treat bags, these Halloween paper party bags are a good option.
Mini Halloween Gift Bags
If you want a Halloween treat bag with a handle that the kids can carry away with them, then these ones are a good choice.
As they come in a variety of colours and Halloween designs.
And measuring just 4" by 4", they are the ideal size to fill with a few goodies come trick or treat night.
Felt Halloween Treat Bags
These Halloween treat bags made from felt are another great option for younger kids.
Firstly the feel of the felt makes them seem a lot more appealing to hold.
And the faces on the front and the designs are really fun and cute too.
So they are the kind of bags that the young kids will love, especially when they are filled with goodies!
Halloween Spiders Web Gift Boxes
You could also put your treats inside a box rather than a bag this Halloween.
As boxes are sturdier and more protective than bags, so treats like cookies, muffins and cupcakes would survive much better in one of these.
So if this sounds like a better option, check out these spiders web gift boxes.
They are great for Halloween as they look dark and creepy.
And they each have a little handle so the kids can carry them home too.
Coffin-Shaped Gift Boxes
If you want to go ultra creepy with your Halloween gift box, you could get some that are shaped like coffins.
These make a brilliant container for your ghoulish treats come Halloween time.
And they are also great for Halloween dinner parties, as you can place little treats and party favours inside them for your guests.
Which gives you a really eye-catching way of handing out treats.
Candy Felt Bucket Holders
Buckets are another way of handing out treats to the kids come Halloween time.
And these Halloween buckets made from felt are perfect for that.
As they come with really colourful and cute Halloween designs.
While being small enough that they are great for younger kids.
Pumpkin Head Buckets
You can also get Halloween themed buckets in plastic if you want something more sturdy than felt to put your treats into.
And they come in a variety of sizes too.
For example, you can get full sized orange buckets with a scary pumpkin face if you have plenty of treats to fit into them.
Or you could get miniature Jack O'Lantern style ones, which are great for putting candy into and handing out to trick or treaters.
Black Cauldron Treat Containers
Another great way to display or give out candy treats is by putting them in a witches cauldron.
As these fit the season perfectly and look great when they are filled to the brim with candy.
And like the buckets, they come in a variety of sizes.
So you could get a batch of tiny cauldrons to fill with goodies and give out to trick or treaters.
Or you could get a set of various sizes, and use them around your home as decorations throughout Halloween.
Halloween Bags For Trick & Treating
Your kids will need somewhere to stash all the goodies they receive while they are on their trick or treating round.
But rather than giving them any old bag to take with them, why not get them something Halloween themed that will look great as well.
As this will only add to their experience.
Now you could use some of the bigger bags and buckets I've mentioned here already for trick and treating.
Or you could get them a bigger sack or container, with the ones below being some of our favourites.
Firstly there are these cool looking Halloween sacks.
They have a nice and simple design, while also being big enough to get all of their treats into.
And you can write their names on them at the bottom with a Sharpie pen, so everyone knows which one is theirs!
Or if you want a more grown up bag for older kids, girls especially, how about this Halloween tote bag?
Again this has a nice and simple, yet colourful design on the front.
And it's perfect for slipping over their shoulder as they walk from door to door.
And finally you could go for something more personalised, such as these trick or treating buckets.
These look great and have plenty of room inside for all their treats.
And you can choose exactly which type of design you want.
So you can have any combination of black or orange backgrounds, having a ghost, pumpkin, or bat on the front, and having your child's name woven into it or not.
Rounding Up
Handing out gifts and treats at Halloween time is a great thing to do.
However, you can make it even better by putting some thought and care into how you give these treats out.
Because receiving treats in a creepy, Halloween themed treat bag, box or container will bring the whole thing to life for the kids.
And as you can see from our lists here, there are so many different ways to do this.
So make sure your treats are looking devilishly good this Halloween season with these treat bags and containers.
