At dusk, a line of four costumed children walks a foreground path toward a large white two-story farmhouse, its windows glowing and smoke rising from the chimney. Their vintage costumes (a colonial-style coat and cap, white bonneted dresses and a witch outfit) are completed by treat baskets and a jack-o'-lantern pail.

Jack-o'-lanterns line the bushes and front walk, silhouetted crows perch on the roofline and fly overhead, and bare and rust-leaved trees flank the house against hazy woods. A fine speckle and splatter texture over the whole canvas gives it the look of a weathered, distressed vintage print, with warm light confined to the windows and pumpkin faces.
