The Howling Torch

For today's countdown to Halloween's post, I am blogging about what is probably Wolfie's favourite Halloween toy. It is a sort of torch, or dynamo, which when you press it has a jack o'lantern that spins around emitting little flashing lights. Not enough to lit much, but anyway. It also has a scream that sounds a bit like a half plaintive, half menacing howl, as if the jack was warning you of his presence. I bought this torch at Morrissons (I think) and Wolfie adopted it as one of these fun toys that parents find extremely annoying. Unfortunately the globe already broke a bit and the lights don't work all the time. But he still likes to use it to scare his mother.
