"Celebrating Halloween with a Papa Murphy's Jack-O Pizza has become a family tradition that gets everyone in the spirit and is the perfect start to a night of trick-or-treating," said Ken Calwell, president and chief executive officer of Papa Murphy's.

The annual Jack-O-Lantern Pizza starts with Papa Murphy's fresh, scratch-made, pumpkin-shaped dough and is topped with traditional red sauce, generous portions of 100 percent whole-milk Mozzarella cheese and as always, a smiling jack-o-lantern face made with premium pepperoni and olives.
Papa Murphy's specialty Spooky Dough is chocolate chip cookie dough inspired by the Halloween spirit with its bright orange color, reminiscent of a pumpkin. The dough is sold in a one-pound container and is the perfect dessert to bake at home and enjoy with the entire family.
In conjunction with Halloween, Papa Murphy's encourages pizza fans to pick up a Jack-O-Lantern Pizza to celebrate National Pizza Month, which takes place throughout the month of October.
