STRATFORD, Ct. - Fire Departments across the country warn that the scariest thing about Halloween is the fire hazard caused by candles. Paul Cayton has changed all that by creating a line of battery operated and AC Adaptable Pumpkin Lights. The New Deluxe Amazing Rainbow Pumpkin Light will light up a pumpkin in 7 beautiful bright colors, allowing the user to stop on a color or let the lights change slowly before their eyes. Runs on 3 AAA batteries that last over 100 hours and offers an AC Adapter port. Available in stores Nationwide or online at www.pumpkinlights.com. (MSRP $4.99)

According to the U.S. Fire Administration, there are approximately 45 deaths during the Halloween season, 175 injuries and up to 92 million in Fire related damage.

"We are about bringing back the fun, lighter side of Halloween and most importantly creating products to promote a Safer Halloween," says Paul Cayton President and Co-Founder of Howler Brands. "Halloween is meant to be a time for dress-up and spooky fun, but over the past decade it has taken a turn towards frightening, bloody, gory props and haunts targeted at teenagers and college students."

For our Halloween Traditionalists, Cayton created the Amazing Artificial Candle Pumpkin Light, a super bright light with 3 yellow LEDs that flicker just like a candle, but without the danger of the fire candles can cause. (MSRP $4.99)

The #1 Safety Tip is to carry a flashlight ... Howler Brands has created the first ever Halloween Rainbow Night Saber, a fun, super bright light that changes 7 colors by the push of a button.
