Do you/ have you/ would you let your kids go Trick or Treating? I tell mine it's nothing more than begging and refuse to let them. Of course we then get 50 kids turn up at our house on Halloween. I f***ing hate it and pray for rain every year - which being an Atheist never usually works. The first person to blame Thatcher gets their house egged.
You fed me, you bred me, I'll remember your name. |

Didn't exist when I was a lad, it was over the pond American excess and didn't interest us here in Blighty where hot potatoes, small bonfires, begging for money and sparklers were enough to keep us going until Christmas. But then something changed. In 1979. Yeah, i let mine do it. Town is kid-friendly apart form the miserable bitch-witch three doors down who just stares at 7 year olds in full garb then shuts the door without saying a word.

I think trick or treat should be restricted to friends or friendly neighbours. Probably scares the s*** out of some old people. My kids never did it to my recollection.

Drive out on 31st at 9pm at night and you see a fair amount of school aged teenagers throwing fireworks around the roads and pavements.

My missus takes the kids out, but with a hard rule "no knocking on houses not displaying a pumpkin". Gets rid of the chance of calling on people not "up for it".

I take mine out. They are young so I go once it's dark and I am back in by about 7 with them. I also buy a few bits for the (hoardes) of kids who knock at my house. The general rule is if there isn't a pumpkin out or lights on you don't knock at those houses. Or some people display a sign telling you not to knock . Maybe try that if you want to be left alone. Agree about the teenagers they charge round and cause havoc. Police usually end up our chasing them

I simply put a sign on the door saying " In this house we do not observe Halloween - thank you for respecting our choice" Never got bothered and never egged either. Down here in Somerset I don't need to bother as no-one seems to do it, or at least not round a retirement park!

Love it. Hope to get a few tick or treaters - although I've just moved, so I won't have any decorations and such up. Halloween is my kind of 'holiday'. Dressing up, getting wasted, slutty costumes, scary stuff, horror movies and parties. Used to throw a party every year. Looking forward to throwing one again next year.

Chocolates made with extra hot chilli powder. Save them for later kids.

I am no fan either, when I was a student we had some pretty unpleasant kids around. Didn't bother answering the door, they lobbed apples at the house. Now I have a flat I can more easily avoid the nonsense.
