Leading take and bake pizza brand celebrates return of the spookiest night of the year with a Scream of a Deal

VANCOUVER, Wash., Oct. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: FRSH) this month announces the return of its hauntingly delicious Jack-O-Lantern Pizza. The one-of-a-kind fall favorite is a treat for all ages. Made from scratch and fresh-to-order, Jack-O-Lantern Pizzas—lovingly known as the Jack-O—will be available nationwide for a limited time at participating Papa Murphy’s locations and online at Papamurphys.com now through October 31, 2018. There will be two size options: large and family.

Customers can also celebrate the Halloween season by indulging their sweet tooth with the “Scream of a Deal” offer. With the purchase of a Jack-O Pizza, Papa Murphy’s will be offering one pound of their made-from-scratch, ready-to-bake Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough for only $3 more at participating locations.

“We are delighted to offer Jack-O again this year,” said Laura Szeliga, chief marketing officer at Papa Murphy’s. “Whether for a Halloween party or a quick dinner for kids before trick or treating, our guests tell us that a Papa Murphy’s take and bake pizza is the perfect way to celebrate because it can be served fresh from your oven in about 15 minutes.”

Each Jack-O Pizza at Papa Murphy’s begins with dough made fresh in store, in the shape of a pumpkin, which is topped with traditional red sauce and 100 percent whole-milk mozzarella, grated in stores daily. Premium pepperoni is placed into a smiling Jack-O-Lantern face with two olive eyes.
