4. The street behind me has a big party

They close down the street for Halloween. 👻 It’s wild - trick or treaters, live music, popcorn machines, adult beverages. I don’t bother getting candy because everyone heads over there. My first year, I had tons of candy and waited but no one came 😞.

[debm55]

11. thank you maptap22. Enjoy yourself and have a great time. Happy Halloween

5. Consistent with previous years.

During the 47 years we've lived at this house, the total number of trick-or-treaters remains steadfastly at zero.

[debm55]

12. Thank you very much, Dale in Laurel MD. We used to get tons of kids. They have grown up and no longer trick or treat.

Happy Halloween.

[remo ymor]

6. Zero, I have had zero each of the last 5 years

I don't expect any tonight. No children live in my small rural neighborhood and I don't expect any to be driven over here. Not enough houses to make it worth while.

[debm55]

13. One just came house to house on a motorcycle. Thank you remo ymor. Happy Halloween.

[Diamond_Dog]

7. Zero here as well.

We live on a busy road with no sidewalks and my driveway is long. We never get any trick or treaters.

[debm55]

20. Bummer, Thank you very much, Diamond_Dog. Happy Halloween.

[SheltieLover]

8. Zero, as always.

Kids in the Memphis region don't trick or treat. Prob afraid to knock on doors or eat what they might be given.

Very strange region.

[debm55]

19. Oh my, Thank you SheltieLover and have a great evening. Happy Halloween.

[spooky3]

9. About 50-60 so far. Cuties! Nt

[debm55]

17. Wow!!!!! That's a lot. Were you ready for them--candywise???? Thanks spooky and Happy Halloween.

[spooky3]

25. Yes, we had lots of candy. Will probably get a wave of older kids 8-9 pm. nt

[Niagara]

14. We have received 6 trick or treaters this evening

On average we generally received only 3.


There's a half hour left on the trick or treat hours.

🎃

[debm55]

15. Thank you very much, Niagara. Happy Halloweeen.

[Niagara]

16. Absolutely! Happy Halloween, Debbie

🎃

[ProfessorGAC]

21. Forty Something With 45 Minutes To Go

It was pretty busy from 5 to 6. Probably got 90% of trick or treaters in that hour.
Since then only a few.
Really nice weather for it, too. I expected a bigger turnout.

[debm55]

23. We have ours from 6 to 8. We had 10. The weather is windy and light rain. Forty something is pretty good. Happy

Halloween, ProfessorGAC.

[True Dough]

26. My urologist

also asks questions about my flow, deb!

[debm55]

35. And the fickle finger of fate???

[True Dough]

36. I always encourage

the use of gloves!

[PJMcK]

27. Zero

Our house is in a very rural area of the Catskills and it is no good for trick-or-teating. The houses are pretty far apart, there aren't sidewalks and it's dark at night.

We contributed to the local community center for their kids Halloween party last weekend and we bought a "goodie bag" from the high school kids ($25 for the food pantry).

When I was a teenager, my friends and I dressed up and trick-or-treated for Unicef. Good times!

[debm55]

37. Thank you very much.PJMcK. You are a very kind and generous person.

[3catwoman3]

28. Just tallied 50 a few minutes ago, in 18 separate groups.

We had M&Ms, Reese's PB cups, mini milk chocolate bars that I get from my UU church because they are fair trade and no child labor involved, and Skittles for those allergic to peanuts. There are always a few peanut-allergic kids, and they are typically very pleased that someone has thought about that.

Our cats beat feet into the basement everytime someone knocked on the door, so they got a fair amount of exercise this evening.

[debm55]

38. Hahahahahha. love the cats, Thank you for sharing, 3catwoman3, You are a very kind and generous person.Happy

Halloween.

[wcmagumba]

29. Small town Kansas very few if any kiddies. I live in a Senior Retirement apt complex, don't expect any...

Not like when I was a kid...all the lights were on and lots of kids...dad took us on a little flat trailer he built pulled by his big green John Deere riding mower with big lights he added on...it was fun then, times have changed...

[debm55]

39. Thank you very much wcwagumba for sharing that memory. Did the Senior Retirement complex have any Halloween activities?

Happy Halloween. Love, deb.

[wcmagumba]

41. Nope, all locked up this time of day...We oldies around here stay home but me being a night owl I'll be up late...

Waiting for

[debm55]

43. Thank you.

[BlueKota]

30. We have rain and 50 mph wind gusts.

Also the road I live on is not really conducive to safe walking especially for kids. We have a speed limit of 45 mph which barely anyone follows, and only one couple in the houses closest to me have a child. So I have zero trick or treaters.

The road was much safer when I was little and there were several of us kids, but we never had many trick or treaters. I asked some of the neighbors I rode the bus with why, and they said it was because they were afraid of our German Shepherd at the time, even though he never bit anyone.

[debm55]

40. Thank you very much, BlueKota, We had 10 treaters but it was also very windy and light rain. Happy Halloween.

[BOSSHOG]

31. Slightly less but

This is the chilliest Halloween we’ve had in years.

[debm55]

42. Thank you, BOSSHOG . It was very windy and rainy here in Pittsburgh. The coldest we had was was in 1973. My son was

dressed as a Power Ranger --can't remember the color. It snowed and he fell down the front steps of our porch. We took him to the ER and he spent Halloween there. BUT he had all the candy we were supposed to give out. Happy Halloween.

[LogDog75]

44. I rarely have any trick or treaters come by.

Twenty years ago I got probably 30 - 40 of them but today, nada. I did buy some M&Ms for the 15 month little boy in our condo complex. His mother took him and three of her friends young kids Trick-or-Treating about 4 pm and I made sure to gie them some candy. In our small city, the businesses in a four bloc area give out candy from 3:30 - 7:30 pm and that's where most of the parents take their kids. We do have one street that closes off both ends of the street so kids can Trick-or-Treat safely.

[debm55]

45. thank you very much, LogDog75. That was very kind of you,
