A Halloween math tour—from optimizing trick-or-treat routes and predicting candy haul to the cognitive biases that inflate fear and the doomsday forecasts of zombie epidemics. We link suspense in film to real-world risk, show how simple counting underpins sharing candy, and explain why fast, decisive action often wins in these dynamic systems.
