The Charlotte, North Carolina-based chain is known for its doughnut giveaways. Last week, it offered any customer who visited a Krispy Kreme location dressed in a Halloween costume a free doughnut of choice, no purchase necessary.

Earlier this year, Krispy Kreme celebrated its 85th anniversary by giving away free doughnuts for a year. It also made headlines for a promotion that offered a dozen Original Glazed doughnuts for the average U.S. price of regular gas.

Last month, Krispy Kreme unveiled a collection of doughnuts inspired by churros — the deep-fried pastry coated in cinnamon sugar that’s popular in Spain, Mexico, and increasingly across the United States.
