While decorating gingerbread houses is usually associated with the Christmas season, [Trader Joe's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caramel-pretzel-drumstick-decorating-kit) is brining the tradition into October with its Haunted House Chocolate Cookie Kit. Completely customizable and deliciously edible, the spooky kit is the perfect activity for kids and Halloween loving adults.

Trader Joe's Haunted House Chocolate Cookie Kit is a decorative kit that is designed to "set your spooky imagination free!" The kit itself contains seven chocolate pieces that can be used to construct your very own haunted house. Consumers can then decorate the house however they wish using black and orange icing, bones and bats, jelly beans, and colorful candy balls. Once the haunted house is complete, consumers can enjoy it as a decoration or devour the whole thing.
