By IHOP

Hello Steve,
Brace yourselves; Scary Face Pancakes are back at IHOP!
The beloved holiday favorite is only available until October 31, and on Halloween, IHOP is giving kids a special treat by offering Scary Face pancakes for free to children 12 and under from 7 a.m. – 10 p.m.
IHOP hasn’t forgotten about the adults, offering them a treat as well this October – the return of the perennial fall favorite, pumpkin pancakes!
Please see the press release below for more information. Photos are available upon request. If you are interested in visiting your local IHOP to take photos of your own, please let me know and I would be happy to coordinate the details for you.
Thank you,
Kelsey



FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
THE HAUNT IS ON FOR THE SPOOKIEST DECORATED PANCAKE WHEN “SCARY FACE” PANCAKES REMATERIALIZE AT IHOP RESTAURANTS, OCTOBER 1 – AND ON HALLOWEEN, FOR KIDS UNDER 12, THEY’RE FREE!
As an Added Bonus, Seasonal Favorite Pumpkin Pancakes, though not in Costume, Return to the Menu through January
GLENDALE, CA – IHOP Restaurants may want to change their name to the “International Haunted House of Pancakes” this October, with the return of their frighteningly delicious “Scary Face” Pancakes! This customizable treat, beloved by children, will return to the “Just for Kids” menu from October 1 through the rest of the month.
As an added treat, on Halloween itself, Friday October 31, from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., kids can enjoy their petrifying playful pancake portrait for FREE at participating IHOP restaurants.
An order of the “Scary Face” pancakes is sure to keep the kids entertained! Each order comes with one of IHOP restaurants’ world famous buttermilk pancakes decorated with a beaming whipped topping smile and eyes, and a strawberry nose. Then, kids can use a kit of delicious toppings – eight pieces of sweet candy corn and two mini Oreos – to finish decorating the face any way they choose.
Young guests can let their imaginations run spooky as they create frightening or funny face combinations. From candy corn horns to vampire teeth, the possibilities are endless – that is, if they can resist eating the warm, fluffy pancake right away!
“Wouldn’t it be great if you had a neighbor who gave out delicious buttermilk pancakes instead of just candy for trick-or-treating? This Halloween, your local IHOP restaurant will be that neighbor!” said Marie Grimm, VP Culinary and menu, International House of Pancakes, LLC. “We’re very excited to see what our young guests will create this year! And as a treat for our older guests, we’ve returned our most popular seasonal favorite pancake, pumpkin pancakes, to the menu. They’re so good, it’s just plain scary!”
So be sure to stop by your local IHOP restaurant to enjoy a “Scary Face” pancake before the end of October – you don’t even have to say “trick or treat!” – and savor pumpkin pancakes while you can . . . because they too will vanish!
