A fox in a witch hat and rust-red cape, a black cat in a small witch hat and bow, a rabbit in a ghost sheet, a goose carrying a lit lantern and a shaggy terrier in a hooded cape walk in a line along a dirt path. Several carry jack-o'-lantern pails. Behind them stand three stone cottages with warmly lit windows, white picket fences, small pumpkins, bare and golden trees, and a pale full moon with three bats.

The perspective is flat and storybook-like, with a cool gray-blue night sky set against warm window and lantern glow. A fine speckled texture covers every surface uniformly, like pressed collage or mosaic, with a matte finish and no visible brushstrokes.
