Who said adults are too old to trick-or-treat? If you’re still not sold on the idea, I’ll let you in on a secret: a pop-up in West Town is handing out free gourmet brownies through a hidden door. All you have to do is knock—no face time needed.
From Wednesday, October 29 through Saturday, November 1, Killer Brownie is bringing its viral dessert to Professor Pizza’s West Town location at 1374 W Grand Ave. Trick-or-treaters just need to knock on the window, and one of the brand’s most popular brownies, such as Chocolatier (a deep cocoa flavor with a crackle top), Brookie (a brownie–cookie mashup) and Kitchen Sink (caramel, pretzels and chocolate chips), will appear.
Killer Brownie is also hosting a massive candy exchange on Saturday. Bring your unwanted Halloween candy (I’m looking at you, candy corn) to exchange it for a sweet Killer Brownie treat. Personally, I'd take brownies over Tootsie Rolls any day.

This isn’t the first time the Dayton, Ohio-based brand has popped up at Professor Pizza. This summer, the brownie and pizza spots collabed for a one-night-only stand-up show at the Old Town location. With decadent brownies, some of Chicago’s best pizza, and local comics DJ Rybski, Kait Carmody and Vik Pandya, the last event was a hit—so be sure to line up early this time around.
Killer Brownie’s Halloween pop-up kicks off at 11am each day until brownies run out. On Friday, an extra batch is on offer starting at 5pm. Plus, if you miss the pop-up, you can still find the brownies at Jewel-Osco, Mariano’s and other independent retailers throughout the city.
