Office treat bags do not have to be all pumpkins and cute ghosts this year. If your work Halloween party tends to be a little more sarcastic than sweet, these free printable funny Halloween gift tags for grown ups are exactly what your treat bags have been missing.
They star a deadpan little grim reaper who has strong opinions about surviving another workday, and most of us can relate. He shows up with a scythe in one hand and a candy bag in the other, which feels about right for October in an office, and honestly makes for a pretty hilarious little desk sidekick.
We should say this upfront. Dark humor is not for everyone, and that is completely fine. But if you or the people on your team love a lighthearted joke with a little bite, these hilarious tags are going to make their day, and they are too fun to only use once.
They also just look cool sitting out. Prop one against a jar of candy on your desk or clip it to a gift bag on the break room table, and it will double as a tiny piece of Halloween decor that keeps working long after the candy is gone.

Free Printable Funny Halloween Tags for Coworkers and Office Party Favors
These tags were made with the office Halloween party in mind, not trick or treating with kids. Think coworkers, colleagues, your work bestie, or the whole team if you are the one organizing party favors this year. The jokes are workplace friendly in the sense that everyone gets them, even if not everyone will admit they laughed.
There are four designs in the set, and each one plays on a different flavor of office humor. One is built around the classic Halloween candy bag joke, one is about surviving the workday, one calls it hazard pay for another Halloween at the office, and one is a straightforward but still funny reminder to grab a treat. Mix and match them so the treat bags on the table do not all look identical, and so the grim reaper gets to crack a different joke on every desk.
They work equally well for men and women on the team, since the humor is about work life in general rather than anything gendered. Attach one to a bag of candy for a simple party favor, or use it to label bags you are handing out at a desk to desk office crawl.
Why These Hilarious Halloween Gift Tags for Adults Are Perfect for Homemade Treats Too
If you are the person who always ends up bringing something homebaked to the office party, these tags are an easy way to dress it up without much effort. Tie one onto a bag of caramel corn, dip it through the top of a cellophane bag of cookies, or loop it onto a jar of homemade candy for the office potluck table. It takes the treat from something you just set down to something that actually looks gifted.
For anyone hanging out with friends around Halloween rather than at the office, the same tags work just as well on a bag of sweets you are handing around, since nothing about the design says work only. A little grim reaper humor travels fine outside the break room too.
One tip before you print. Cardstock is the way to go here rather than regular printer paper. It holds up to being handled, tied onto a bag, and passed around the office without going soft or tearing, and it gives the tag a slightly sturdier, more finished feel once it is cut out.
You can download the printable file below and print as many as you need for your office, your desk, or your own Halloween candy stash.
