How do I open M&S Halloween haunted house biscuit tin?

[winteroversummer]

I've tried every which way and cannot get to the biscuits inside?!

You don't.
On 31/10 mini zombies will prise it open from the inside. Don't worry

From the bottom you wombat, there's a little sticker each side.

I wish I had asked before prizing the roof up on one side with a screw driver

How badly did you need the shortbread????

Also, wombat is not used an an affectionate insult anywhere near enough!

Haha brilliant :D

I just looked it up and I am definitely buying those biscuits.

Does it really light up?

I think I need a picture of this tin....

If it's anything like the musical boxes the shortbread was horrible.

Aw that's disappointing

You do know that there are creatures of darkness who track their victims by the aroma of shortbread? You have put yourself in mortal danger now!

Your only hope is to gobble up all the shortbread so there is absolutely no trace of it. Can you do that to save yourself?

Thanks, one has just fallen into my Ocado basket.

M&S should be giving you commission - I will now be buying one the next time I'm in a shop!

Love the mini zombies comment

This is brilliant (comments and item).
I'm now ordering one and the spooky Colin caterpillar cake for DDs birthday.

Picture or it never happened

My little boy has one and he opened it and he's 2. 🤣 I mean that in the nicest way OP haha! There's a little sticker on each side at the bottom and it undoes.

Also the shortbread is lovely.

This is what it looks like:

My 4 year old DS found them in a cupboard, I was hiding them for Halloween. He's been poorly this weekend and hasn't eaten much, but rather fancied one of the biscuits. The tears started when I couldn't get the bloody roof off. I jabbed a knife in the metal joint on the side to try and shimmy it open as thought that was the trick, and cut my thumb. Tears more intense and bleeding mother and still not biscuits so I typed it into YouTube hoping for an instruction video still no luck. Moved onto screw driver and bent up one side of roof but not far enough to get biscuits. My 18 month old had joined in with the weeping at this point. Turned to mumsnet and voila.

In my defence DH had taken the stickers off the sides in his initial failed attempt to open them, so I didn't have those to guide me

Biscuits delightful, might I add. Tiny pumpkins and bats

@winteroversummer
thanks for the laugh
