Step 4:

Pour the black and white candy melts into a tall mug. Dip the pretzel into the mug(s) and use a spoon to scoop the melted candy over the pretzel rod. Leave a little space at the top of the pretzel with no candy coating.  Tap the excess candy off the pretzel and lay onto the parchment lined baking sheet.

Cover pretzel rods with different Halloween sprinkles. But leave a few bare so you can zig-zag.

To create the zig-zag design, cut a bottom corner off the chocolate filled ziploc baggies.
