Preparation Steps
  1. Prepare the popcorn base by popping popcorn according to package instructions, aiming for about 8 cups of light, fluffy popcorn. Break apart any large clumps in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C) and spread the popcorn mixture onto a lipped baking sheet, then bake for about 10 minutes to warm.
  3. Melt the vanilla flavored melting wafers in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring after each interval until smooth.
  4. Divide the melted wafers into separate bowls and add food coloring to tint each bowl in vibrant Halloween colors.
  5. Drizzle the colored melting wafers over the popcorn mix, adding sprinkles and candy eyeballs while the drizzle is still warm.
  6. Let the mix cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes to harden.
  7. Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks or serve immediately.
