Yes! I get over two hundred kids on Halloween ran or shine.I give out only large candy bars,never the “fun”size. I have bubbles and fog, monsters,witches and graveyards bats strobe lights,loud scary music.I added bubbles to take it down a notch,because the toddlers were afraid and crying by the time they got to my front door.The high school kids love it.Its the one night I get to be me : )

Our black cat sits in the window half of the day, does that count?

This goddamn Halloween. They’ve made it a second holiday next to Chinese Goods Consumption Day (Christmas).

Giving out shit candy – made with corn syrup. No way.

We pull the shades, turn out the lights, and go out to dinner.

No.
I Don’t get to hand out many treats either.

The kids don’t stick around long enough when I open the door and greet them, while wearing my Pennywise the clown mask.

Ditto Kokoda, 300 foot driveway = no kids in 20 years. Hell yeah!

I’ve been saving up packets. We always get a lot of kids. Sometimes I pull the portable fire pit around to the front.

We used to, not anymore.

The main feeder road is jammed with cars from the poor side of town and about four years ago we started getting a stream of fatass moms with two or three bags asking for candy “fo my boye (or gurl) who be sic-it hom”

Bah humbug

I wasn’t always this nice, one Halloween I cut out some 1/4′ plywood grave markers, painted them old west style and ‘buried’ all my co-workers in the front yard.

12 years ago, no. Single, adult son, no reason and only served to remind me of the things I lost in 2001.

Now? My daughter would disown me if we didn’t. I manage to delay her until 2 weeks before.
