== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* In the first arc of ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro Nini]]'', Rena gives Keiichi a box of rice balls. The first one he bites into contains a sewing needle. {{spoiler|[[Unreliable Narrator|But not really.]] It's actually Tabasco sauce, but Keiichi's escalating paranoia has started screwing with his ([[Through the Eyes of Madness|and the viewer's]]) perceptions.}}
* In ''[[I Luv Halloween]]'', Finch fills an apple with razor blades after he and his friends were cheated out of their candy. He gives the apple to a cop. The result isn't pretty.
 
Line 25:
 
== [[Film]] ==
* The original ''[[Night of the Demons (Film)|Night of the Demons]]'' featured a frame story of this. A cranky old man is angered by children, and comes home on Halloween with a bag full of apples and razor blades. The final scene involved the old man sitting down for a breakfast of apple pie made by his wife. He only asks her after taking a few bites where she got the apples...
** Of course, [[Fridge Logic]] says that to make apple pie, you have to slice the apples.
* In ''[[Trick R'r Treat (Film)|Trick R Treat]]'', the [[Serial Killer]] principle puts poison in some of his candy. There's also [[Creepy Child]] Sam, who uses a razor-chocolate bar as a weapon in one scene.
** Also, as a nod to this trope, {{spoiler|when Mr Kreeg falls down the stairs, they're littered with hypodermic needles, straight pins, shards of glass, razor blades and candy}}.
* In ''[[Candyman (Film)|Candyman]],'' during her first exploration of the "shrine" to Candyman at Cabrini Green, Helen finds a small heap of chocolates on the floor; one of them is found to contain a razor blade.

== [[Music]] ==
* [[Insane Clown Posse (Music)|A couple of well-known rapping clowns]] seem to [[Author Appeal|love]] this trope when mentioning Halloween. Check out "Mr. Rotten Treats" and "Halloween on Military Street" to name a couple.
 
== [[Web Comics]] ==
Line 54:
* An episode of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' has the police x-raying the kids Halloween candy and finding [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|razors, syringes, and...white chocolate]], to which Chief Wiggum cringes at in disgust.
* Sniffles is forced to eat one in ''[[Happy Tree Friends]]''.
* [[Jail Bake|Although the objects were intended to be helpful,]] sometimes Burger Beagle of ''[[Duck TalesDuckTales]]'' would eat Ma Beagle's cooking before checking it for nail files or grenades.
