Computer game with pumpkins and witches, ~15year old, probably Atari or Amiga?

I remember playing a computer game around 15 years ago, which had lots of pumpkins and witches in it. It's been a jump and run type of game and has probably been played on an Atari or Amiga computer, but at that time I didn't really care. What game could it be?

Bonus points if you point me to sources for an emulator as well as a source to get the game from.

Anything else that could help identify it?

Best answer: I'm probably way off since they're much older and for a different system, but the first games that came to mind were Cauldron and Cauldron II.

Sure it's not Ghosts and Goblins for NES?

i was coming in here to say it sounds like Cauldron and Cauldron II for the C64, so check out Skybly's links for sure.

Wiz 'n' Liz? I don't know if it has a lot of pumpkins in it, but it's the first thing that came to mind. WinUAE will emulate it.

Getting a Cauldron vibe too.

Or possibly Ghosts and Goblins?

Response by poster: Thanks for your help. I'm pretty sure I was playing Cauldron II and it turns out you can play it online (or a game that looks just like it at first glance).
