Two cartoon children, one with white hair and a green jacket, the other with red hair and a red hooded outfit, sit in the open trunk of a car decorated for Halloween. They are eating candy, surrounded by pumpkins, wrapped gifts, and a Halloween-themed box. The background shows a park with autumn foliage and other children in costumes.
