As Halloween looms, we posed the following spooky query to celebs: What's the best treat you ever got in your bag?

-- SHERYL CROW ''I got a hairbrush, when I was 12 or so. That might've been a trick as opposed to a treat.''

-- ALLISON JANNEY (The West Wing): ''Orange-colored martinis.''

-- WILL FERRELL (SNL): ''I don't know about the best, but pennies were the worst.''

-- DAVID ALAN GRIER (DAG): ''I grew up in the day they were putting razor blades in apples, so I was happy with the little candy corns.''

-- ELLEN DeGENERES ''I got a lawn chair once. It may have been an accident, I don't know. but I got an actual lawn chair. It broke my bag, but that's okay.''
