UPDATE: Password to Get 3 King-Sized Candy Bars in Lewiston, Maine
Peter Geiger is a Lewiston native who loves Halloween so much, that he's been named Mr. Halloween. He just revealed the secret password!
For decades, Peter Geiger has made Halloween special for Lewiston and beyond. He is the Editor Emeritus of the Farmers' Almanac stepping down after 45 years. Sandi Duncan becomes the first female editor of this amazing publication. As they like to point out, it's the orange and green one.
But for many of you, Peter Geiger is the guy who goes nuts for Halloween, handing out king-sized candy bars. This was his haul for 2023. Over 6,500 king-sized candies!
Halloween in Lewiston for 2024 will be bigger, better, and more exciting!
Last year Halloween was less than a week after Maine's worst mass shooting in history. People were scared, sad, and devastated. They needed something to look forward to, and Peter and his crew provided that.
People came and celebrated, laughed, and got a ton of candy. In fact, Peter ran out of candy thanks to the hundreds of people grateful for something positive after something so devastating. Peter knows this year will be no different with the first anniversary of Lewiston's tragedy. So, he's upped his game with over 8,460 king-sized candy bars of 30 varieties! And he has it all set up to move quickly! No long lines to wait in!
You need the password to score more king-sized candy bars in Lewiston, Maine
A password will get you THREE king-sized candies!
This morning, Peter Geiger revealed the password for your haul of three king-sized candy bars!
PASSWORD IS
Peter has so much candy that he has added a special twist this year! With 8,620 king-sized candy bars weighing 34,000 ounces or 2,160 pounds - he will be handing out 4 KING-SIZED CANDY BARS!
Is it true that Peter doesn't eat candy?
Peter loves candy and candy bars but gave it all up for Lent about 40 years ago. He says that serving thousands of giant candy bars to kids does not even tempt him. He's a giver, not an eater.
Where is this fantastic Halloween candy extravaganza?
It's at Geiger (duh) at 70 Mt. Hope Avenue in Lewiston (don't go to the Geiger school, it's a rookie mistake). It starts at 4:30 pm and ends at 8:30 pm. Because of the giant parking lot, lines are minimal, and there is hardly a wait. He can't wait to see you, and look for a witch that might look a little familiar!
