According to a recent survey by Hershey Canada, 92% of respondents believe Halloween will be different this year, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be fun and memorable. To help both families and Halloween fans honour the spirit of the season, Hershey Canada has developed innovative ways to celebrate from home keeping in all the fun and excitement that comes with a bag full of candy. Best of all, these activities go way beyond October 31st creating a month full of Halloween fun.

Meet Hershey Treat Quest, the innovative gamification of the ever-loved trick or treating experience. The digital game, available on SnapChat at the end of September, has players seek and find Hershey candy in a Treat Quest that combines the fun of the hunt for candy with the excitement that only a bag full of treats can bring. Participants of the game will also have the chance to win a Halloween Prize pack of Halloween goodies from Hershey Canada. Better yet, Hershey has partnered with Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada (BGCC) to create joyous Halloween experiences for those who need it the most.
