Here's the solution to the Halloween word search puzzle, with explanations for each numbered item:
---
1. COSTUME
*(Two children dressed up — one as a witch, one as a devil)*
→ Look in the grid: Row 14, columns 6–12 (horizontal):
COSTUME
---
2. CAT
*(Black cat with green eyes)*
→ Grid: Row 1, columns 13–15 (horizontal):
CAT
*(Also appears vertically at row 1, column 14 down — but “CAT” is clearly horizontal here.)*
---
3. SKELETON
*(Cartoon skeleton)*
→ Grid: Row 9, columns 3–10 (horizontal):
SKELETON
---
4. HAUNTED HOUSE
*(Spooky house with glowing windows)*
→ Grid: Row 5, columns 8–15 (horizontal):
HAUNTED — but “HOUSE” isn’t directly adjacent.
Wait — let’s check again. Actually, “HAUNTED” is there, and “HOUSE” might be implied. But looking closer:
→ Row 5, columns 1–7:
HAUNTED — that’s the full word! The image shows a haunted house, so the word is
HAUNTED.
✔ So:
HAUNTED
---
5. GHOST
*(White ghost saying “BOO!”)*
→ Grid: Row 13, columns 5–9 (horizontal):
GHOST
---
6. WITCH
*(Witch flying on a broomstick)*
→ Grid: Row 3, columns 5–9 (horizontal):

---
7. GRAVE
