We are going to our ward's Trunk-n-Treat and this is what we're giving out:

I used almond bark because it's tasty and cheap! For 6 blocks or 12 oz of almond bark I added 1 tbsp shortening (I only had butter flavored and it yellowed the almond bark only slightly) - cannot substitute for oil or anything else - so the candy was easy to dip, and you didn't have to rush as much for fear the candy would harden, as well as make the candy a little thinner for spreading the lines across the face through a frosting tip. Use frosting tip 44 that is a thin rectangle.
For 12 oz of almond bark it covered 24 oreos (I only melted 12 oz at a time because that was doable for me ;) I dipped all 24 oreos and then placed the eyes. After that dried (it takes about 30 minutes for it to dry completely), I did the mummy wrapping.
I did buy my edible eyes at http://www.sweetbakingsupply.com/royal-icing-eyes-inch-white-p-1597.html which are disgusting to the taste, but I was going for the cute factor. I really, really wanted the pink eyes, but they were out of stock when I bought mine =(
I made these ghosts out of Nutter Butters for my lesson last Sunday about the Holy Ghost:
And only 100 more mummies to go before Saturday night:
