It's the perfect time of year to get cozy on the couch and watch a scary movie. Turn the lights off, grab your favorite blanket, and prepare to get scared. Of course, no movie night is complete without popcorn, but why settle for regular old popcorn when you can have Fortune Favors Caramel Corn!? This recipe takes the popcorn we all grew up pairing with our favorite horror flicks and transforms it into a terrifyingly delicious concoction!
