Haunted house ice cream

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Haunted house ice cream was produced in the UK by a company called Lyons Maid. It first went on sale in July 1973 and cost 4p.

The ice cream itself was white, and a picture was printed on it in edible ink. There were eight pictures in total: Frankenstein's Monster, a spook, a skeleton, a spider and web, some bats, a wicked witch and a creature. The pictures were shown in one of the following colors: pink, orange, red, green and blue. It was impossible to know what picture was on the ice cream until you opened the wrapper.
