Is fast approaching - what tricks do you play on the Halloweeners themselves? 
Try any tricks on me, and they will need treatment.
Thinking more along the lines of an IED.
I actually like Halloween, i'm not into the Americanised way of things like trick or treating.
We take the little to a place near us called Farmageddon which is brilliant on Halloween, get the little one a pumpkin etc.
If the kids like it, and can enjoy it without glorified begging, then its all fun.

Although most think it's an American thing, I remember as a kid growing up in Scotland, we used to go guising on Halloween. This was in the very late 50's early 60's. Bobbing for Apples etc All the typical Halloween stuff. (but 50 yrs ago)

We still went guising in my day too John, that was 25 years ago. You do still see some around but it's not like it used to be.

Still all good fun though!

All year we tell our children to avoid strangers with sweets and then...............................
Saw somewhere they are bringing Bob-A-Job back. Wonder how long that will last as it was stopped because of the issues raised with "strange adults".

But what is halloween? or hallow's eve? do we know what we are celebrating? (without wikipediaing!!)
Without googling, I believe its an old Celtic tradition that is related to the end of the harvest or summer season. Lots of varitiations though have been adapted from Roman festivals of the dead and souls, or something like that anyway, could be wrong though.
It's an ancient ceremony where young men prove their manhood by shouting obscenities and practice the ancient art of throwing eggs at windows.
