About Spookley
Spookley the Square Pumpkin was created by children’s author and lyricist Joe Troiano when his young son, Nicholas, asked him for a bedtime story – something not scary, something about pumpkins. Joe Troiano's bedtime story became The Legend of Spookley the Square Pumpkin, a top-selling book for 20 years and the beginning of a series of books, movies, apps, songs, stage shows, and merchandise based on Spookley and all of his friends on Holiday Hill Farm, a magical farm where "Every Day is a Holiday."

National Bullying Prevention Month
October is National Bullying Prevention Month and Country Days Corn Maze is partnering with Spookley the Square Pumpkin, the Official Spokes-Pumpkin for National Bullying Prevention Month, to raise awareness for bullying prevention. “The culture of bullying won’t end until people across the country take action and show children and teens that they care,” says Julie Hertzog, director of PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center, which is a division of PACER Center, a national organization. “We love the way Spookley touches the heart and the mind with his message of tolerance and acceptance.”
