I moved to a house (my first) recently and we bought full size chocolate bars and beef jerky sticks to give out (in case someone doesn’t want chocolate).
Not a single child came. I didn’t see or hear anyone under 20 the entire night. We all stayed out on the porch for hours.
The only chocolate bar we gave out was to the pizza lady.
Does nobody trick-or-treat? We have kids in the neighborhood. I see them rising bikes during the day.
How was everyone else’s Halloween?
Edit: We got one! Long after trick or treating hours were over, a little cowboy knocked on our door. I gave him like 5 candy bars and 2 jerky sticks. He was very happy. His dad stopped in a car and he got out to knock on our door. I reckon it had to do with the fake neon LED “trick or treat” sign we hung on the porch.
This thread is sad.
As a kid, my parents(read: mostly my mom) would see 400-500 kids over the night. Was really fun, you’d see everyone out having a great time.
In my last place it was mostly childless renters in the neighborhood but we’d still get a good ~100.
Wow, that’s a lot. We had 119 last year and thought that was a lot. It’s still only 8:25 here but we’re on pace for maybe 80 this year.
