Are you talking about the bed of your truck, or a trunk (like a foot locker)?
For the bed of your truck, three ideas:
* Make it an ocean with "waves of blue material" and create a "rock" with brown material. Dress as a mermaid. Hand out pearly necklaces to girls and little toy ships to boys.
* Load it up with hay and hide pennies and candy and cheap toys in the hay. Dress as non-scary scarecrows, with fake crows sitting on the sides of your truck.
* Dress as fairies and decorate it to be the fairy throne where kids can go up and be granted a treat.
For a trunk, three ideas:
* Make it a treasure chest with strips of vinyl material studded and tacked on for the straps and be non-scary pirates.
* Or try being fairy tale characters and decorate it to look like a big, fat book! Write "Fairy Tales" on the "cover" and kids will get a kick out of it.
* Or, since it's a Church thing, dress as Bible characters and decorate it to be the Ark of the Covenant, if appropriate.
Whatever you do, have fun. Happy Halloween!

Like a Pumpkin patch with the Peanuts characters looking for the Great Pumpkin
Emerald city & the Wizard of Oz
Pirates of the Caribbian

You could do a Disney theme maybe 101 dalmations or snow white. I think this sounds like a great idea, keeps the kids safe on Halloween and they still get treats.

Put a mattress in the bed and decorate it nicely. Either dress up like sleeping beauty and "wake up" to give the kids their candy or dress up in pajamas and forget sleeping beauty. All that getting up and down may make you feel like you were working out all night the next day.

Do it like a fairy garden....make it pretty with flowers and grass and a few fairies around
What about Alice and Wonderland theme...large mushrooms and bugs and flowers
