| For Halloween this Thursday, the five couples who live on the north side of
Elm St. (101, 103, 105, 107, and 109 in order) plan to greet neighborhood
trick or treaters by dressing up as favorite characters and giving out
a different kind of candy. Given the hints below, there's a ghost of a
chance that you can unmask which couple lives in each house, as what each
husband and each wife plans to masquerade on October 31, and what kind of
sweet treat they are giving out to those trick or treaters who brave their
front door. Your treat will be the satisfaction of solving our Halloween
Challenger Logic Puzzle.

- The man going on Halloween as the Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz

- The couple who have chosen Snickers bars as their treat live
next door to John and his wife and to the couple whose wife is dressing
