We call them Trick or Treaters, and it's moderately big. I mean it does happen and obviously stores try to make it big so they can sell things but I don't think it's as big here as it is over there or America.
Trick or treaters here as well. It's pretty major here, although we haven't had as many trick or treaters in recent years as we did when I was younger.
Im with enthused.....though I am slightly more polite and call them little shits. Bare in mind im in the uk and its only teenagers who come round and theyre expecting cash,not a handful of sweets.
Im lucky because I live in a small village with very few teens its usually little kids who knock and theyre done by 7pm!x
There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.
Trick or treaters. In my last two flats no one came to the door and I don't expect any in my current flat since I've not seen many kids in my street. Also, I think people are a bit wary to allow their kids to go to the flats rather than houses. I buy some sweets just in case, but I'm grateful no one appears as I get worried answering the door when I don't know who it is. Oh, and it means more sweeties for me then!!!!!!
Trick or treaters, too. I don't get them at my flat as I live on the first floor in a block. But my parents live in a house and they don't get many either. My parents buy sweets but no children tend to be around the area. Trick or treaters never bothered me. I used to do it when I was little (lived on a family estate) and it was fun. Also never had anyone play tricks. Not really keen on answering the door now, but they are cute all dressed up.
They also seem to have 'Mischief Night' in parts of Yorkshire; something I never experienced when I lived in Newcastle.
We used to call them Halloweeners, and we'd go halloweening, "Penny for halloween" was what everyone got asked when they answered the door, we were always happy with sweets and the few coppers we got.
Nowadays its trick or treating, but they're still halloweeners to us
We used to call them guisers, not sure if that is a Scottish thing? Otherwise trick or treaters.
It doesn't bother me, I like halloween, I used to like doing it. Shouldn't get any here as I'm in a flat and I haven't seen a single child but we never got any where I was before either. Not sure if there were no kids nearby or if it's just less popular now.
"I know you're sad, so I won't tell you to have a good day. Instead, I advise you to simply have a day.
Stay alive, feed yourself well, wear comfortable clothes, and don't give up on yourself just yet.
It'll get better. Until then, have a day."
Halloween protocol is: if there is a jack-o'-lantern or porch lights on, that house has candy. If you want to be a scrooge, turn off your porch lights on Oct 31.
