Answer to Monday's Riddle: Trick or Treat!

Excellent guessing Riddlers! This week, we're giving The Great Pumpkin some publicity. Wednesday, Linus will explain this mysterious Halloween tradition, and Friday, we've got something monstrous in mind, so be sure to check back! See you all around the book block. ; ) ~ F

A great patch of orange is what I seek, and I won't appear if it's scrawny or meek. It must be sincere for me to come, then I'll show myself off to the chosen one. If you believe and forget tricks and treats, I'll quicken the time in which your heart beats. For, I'm exciting to all when the season's right, I come bearing candy in the middle of the night. If you're quiet and wait in the dark, perhaps I'll appear to make my mark. Ghosts and goblins have nothing on me, just ask the boy Linus what I might be. 

What am I? Answer: The Great Pumpkin!
