On October 28, 2009, the Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a notice of the voluntary recall of Halloween Flashlights sold exclusively this season at Target stores around the country. When in use these flashlights can overheat and melt, posing a burn hazard to the consumer. There have been eight reported incidents of the flashlights melting and at least one report of burns to the consumers’ hands. The Halloween Flashlights were sold in two styles: the mini flashlights have a king ring extending from the bottom and were sold in packs of three; the packaging advertises “Mini Flashlights 3 Pack.” The second style is a standard flashlight with a black handle and an orange top. The standard size flashlight was sold in a package with six stencils in various colors labeled as “Flashlight with Stencil.”  Approximately 610,000 of the Halloween Flashlight were sold exclusively at Target stores nationwide from August 2009 through September 2009 costing $1 for the mini flashlights and $2.50 for the standard flashlights. The Consumer Product Safety Commission recommends that consumers immediately stop using the flashlights and return them to Target stores for a full refund.
