An amusing video has emerged from the US of a father pretending to have eaten all the Halloween candy his son had collected.
The footage, captured in New Mexico, shows the boy's hysterical reaction after he is told that his trick-or-treating haul had been consumed in its entirety.
"We tricked our son into thinking his dad ate all his Halloween candy" the filmer wrote online.
"We knew how excited Jacob gets with candy and this was his genuine reaction. We knew he would freak out" they added.
