Although Edna Mitchell Preston's rhythmic text never explicitly spells it out, the spooky and charming artwork from illustrator Kurt Werth makes it plain that One Dark Night occurs on Halloween. The ostensible robber, ghost, witch, scarecrow, skeleton and jack-o-lantern are revealed as trick-or-treaters in the final illustration, and their flight is made humorous by the source of the squeaking: a tiny mouse.
