Three friends in cartoon style are walking down a street decorated with Halloween banners. The person on the left is a woman with red hair wearing a witch hat and costume, holding a glass of beer. The person in the middle is a woman with white hair wearing a white cloak and holding binoculars. The person on the right is a man with black hair wearing a hoodie and carrying a guitar. They all appear to be smiling and enjoying themselves.
