Get into the Halloween spirit with the Halloween Countdown Widget! This fun and festive widget lets you display a cute countdown to the spookiest night of the year. Choose from five adorable designs: the classic ‘Vampy’ Countdown, or one of our four new backgrounds—the Moon, a Ghost, a Cauldron, and Candy.
Halloween Countdown Widget! Grab it from the WordPress Repository here.
Easily add the countdown to your sidebar, footer, or any widget-ready area of your site. Whether your site is a full-fledged Halloween site or perhaps you just love a bit of seasonal fun, this widget is the perfect way to build excitement as Halloween approaches!

Why? Because in version 3 of the plugin, I added new backgrounds and updated the file structure within the plugin. Sorry for the inconvenience.
