If it is true - I bet his mum told him what to say - just maybe not to the men who answered the door - i wonder what their reaction would have been - a 10 year old dressed as a tampon? Very frightening
Load More Replies...Simply brilliant!!. I had a kid come to my door this year, dressed all disheveled, glasses, holding papers and books, with dark circles under her eyes...... She was dressed as a collage student!!! It was one of my faves of the night.
Unless it comes with a list saying, ' the caramel looks like this 🍫and the coconut looks like that 🥥🌰
Load More Replies...lol the other day my friends and i were playing that game "park bench" during drama class and after like four people have taken turns one of my friends sits down on the bench, turns to the person, and just says in a perfect Forrest Gump voice, "my momma always used to say, life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what youre gonna get." and some kids are like what cause they havent seen the movie, but a couple people and i just start DYING while he recites the entire scene word for word, and we're like DANIEL HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MOVIE and he's like "2" and we start dying again
sorry guys that was a really long kinda off-topic story but i had to share it
Load More Replies...Went to a halloween party dressed as a mafioso-type (complete with fedora and cigar). Buddy from my school showed up dressed like a security-guy (you know, button-in-ear, black suit, dark sunglasses)... We spent the entire evening with him ushering people out of my way ^^
Am I the only one who heard the Baywatch theme play in his head while reading this? :)
Hmmm... that sounds weirdly like an episode of the tv show Family Matters...
I wonder if the kid was old enough to speak (it he wanted to) and what did he think was going on XD
Maybe he just didn't wan't to leave the character he was playing
Load More Replies...Those people that can give it but not take it. First to say it's a joke when the other person gets upset but will ignore you for life if you did the same. Worst types of hypocrite.
I once said to policeman on Halloween "Let me guess ...hmm you're dressed as a policeman"? He laughed, pointed at my plain daggy outfit (everyday wear I wasn't in costume) and said " Let me guess ... No plans tonight "!!! Haha haha I gave him a handful of plastic spiders as I walked off ... Hehehe
when I was one, a man came to my house and shot my parents. now I have to wear very baggy clothes. wish I went to a cool school......

Load More Replies...at Halloween last night I saw someone dressed as a hot dog eating a hot dog
I don't know how long ago or where that was but when I was a young child I went up to a house to get candy and a scarecrow jumped out of the chair and I turned around screaming, running away and ran into a tree! It was hilarious lol
Same here, except it was a zombie hiding in the bushes and I tripped and bawled my eyes out.
Load More Replies...There's a video on "America's Funniest Home Videos" of a guy who did this, and one time this big (adult) guy comes up to get some candy, and when the scarecrow goes "BOO", the big guy punches him out (pure reflex). He was alright, so it's OK to laugh.
i literally screamed at that part in Stranger Things when Hopper is investigating the pumpkin field and its a bunch of suspenseful music as he looks cautiously through the tall grass then BAM its a scarecrow painted black
I once was trick or treating with my brother and a guy was sitting in front of his house dressed as a werewolf. We knew he was a real guy so we took 15 minutes of shuffling up to the dude with me repeating over and over to the guy "please don't scare, my little brother". When I look back on it I can only think "That should not have taken so long, but I was also scared and didn't want to admit it.
Actually, I think that was my mom. Her name was Lynn, she was crazy and she smoked 3 packs a day.
Cool lady … (when I was a kid, we woulda changed masks about ten times, and went back to her house several times in different groups)! Of course, when I was young, cigs were 30¢ to 50¢ a pack. Not a chance anyone (even “crazy”) does that nowadays (not that I’d want them to, anyway … since we know SO MUCH MORE about cigarettes, now)!
I tried the same just in the 90's. Worked out better for me....I got 5 DM(what we had before the €) from an old Lady.
We also tried this in the 90's in southern Germany. We only went to a couple houses and the owners were quite confused. They thought we were the three wise men, because the catholic church would have choir /altar boys dress as the wise men at Christmas time and take collections for the church by going door-to-door (my mom would often give them a chocolate bar instead).
Load More Replies...No reason to be sad. :) People probably were just confused. Halloween only became a popular thing in Germany in the late 90s. And it's still not as popular as it is in the U.S. But it's becoming more and more accepted. The same goes for Valentine's Day.
Load More Replies...1990's, newly married to my Egyptian immigrant been-in-the-country-10-months husband. He asked about Halloween. I gave him a detailed explanation of ancient Celtic practices, the introduction of Christianity to the British Isles, the modern results centuries after the merging of two cultures and two religions. So he calls me at work Halloween evening, confused. I had left out the most important part-- "children dressed in weird costumes, ringing our doorbell and expecting free candy."
1980's, our neighborhood frowned on teenagers trick or treating. We dressed up, told disapproving households I was a German exchange student, so my classmates were giving me the American experience. My very convincing German accent worked--until one excited woman called her Austrian mother-in-law to the door. In high school German, I explained that we were just joking, a Halloween trick. She was genuinely amused, and kept up the ruse until we left.
Moved to southern Germany in the late 80’s. My mom taught my Kindergarten about Halloween. Later (early 90’s) a lot of Americans who lived off base, would have their address added to a map of our town so that people would be able to drive to all the houses participating. Later on the German neighbors who lived nearby would sometimes decorate and often had candy just in case :)
We did this in 90s Austria and hid in the field when someone called the cops. It was fine. 3 years later there is an entire chapter in the english books dedicated to Halloween so I think we helped.
U can try this in Czech and you'll probably get same result now. And you will look stupid as well. Although we have Halloween parties usually in kindergartens, nobody is doing trick or treat.
Hmm, I could do that too next year, I only need to find someone tall to go with me.
My dad once told me of a little old lady who went trick or treating every halloween to get her fix for the year.
I cannot seem to edit. Edit: I am short, but would have to hide mt ashen hair. (The horrible writing above is without my reading glasses - don't get old folks).
Load More Replies...ha ha new idea but it would be the other way around for me
Somewhere in the far wall of the party there's a person dressed as Bill Clinton giving a thumbs up.
No.no no. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I do not need that image! *Thinks of a field of puppies instead*
Put "H. P. Lovecraft Historical society" in youtube. Enjoy.
Load More Replies...Awesome! That kind of effort should be rewarded with lots of candy.
Trick or treat, trick or treat, candy all the way. If you get toothbrushes and raisins then you should run away, hey!
Me and my friends went trick or treating when we were 16. We went later than the young kids so we weren't taking any candy from them, but the benefit was all the houses that wanted to unload what they had left so they could turn off the porch light and enjoy their evening. Near then end of our trick or treating, we knocked on a door, the guy opened it and laughed when he saw how old we were. He asked jokingly "Geez..how many of ya'll are married." My friend Jenny meekly raised her hand in the back of the group...LOL
My father used to repair and build diesel engines. One of the contracts his company had was to service and repair the diesel engine on a luxury yacht owned by a middle eastern prince. When it was approaching Halloween, the captain of the yacht informed my Dad that the prince was having a party at his mansion in the hills and that, even though the celebration was by private invitation, that employees and service people could bring their kids by for trick or treat. He gave my Dad the address and told him which door to knock on. When we got there all donned in our costumes, we knocked on the door..a butler answered..and complimented us on our costumes. their candy...half pound chocolate bars. My Dad said it was worth the drive to see the looks on our faces when he handed them to us.
I'm halfway through that thinking, 'what's he gonna get? Jewels? Fun sized gold bars? A wad of bills?'. The end was kind of a disappointment, lol.
Load More Replies...There was a mansion in my neighborhood and they only gave out king sized Snickers bars.
When I was 9, this sweet old couple was giving away 50 cent coins. You can imagine that to us kids that was a fortune.
Not to this extreme... but doesn't every neighborhood have that one house? That gives out dollars or big candy bars?
My neighborhood does. They would let us come into the house and in a room was a buffet table of treats that we could pick a certain number of. :)

Well, there is the frequently forgotten, "Trick" part of trick or treat. :D
That's what I was thinking because I swear he did something like that in one of the episodes. I'll bet he had something else to give Morty if he ever showed up.
Load More Replies...Last year some guy gave me a Panara brownie and my friend got a whole row onion.
a BAG of sauerkraut?? am i living in a hole or is that super weird
I live in Hong Kong, too. We didn't prepare any candy for the Halloween anymore. Because no one will come to our door and say "trick or treat". Even if some foreigners live near my house, and I bought so many candy and snack. But their children did not come. :(
Clearly not. You're all forgetting that Kal-El (aka Superman) has the ability to move faster than the speed of light. It's just one kid changing outfits and moving back and forth faster than your puny human mind can comprehend.
Load More Replies...The other one is Martian Manhunter disguised as Superman so people won't know that it's Clark Kent.
Ers are *beyond crazy* on Halloween. Don't even think about adding a Full Moon!!
Load More Replies...Back in the mid 80's, my sister and I went to a Punk Rock Convention in Seattle. She didn't have a car at the time so we had to take public transit. While at the convention, we got our hair and make up done in true goth punk style. Then we went to the food court outside the convention and sat eating funnel cakes to people staring at us. The fun continued as we rode the bus home in all of our punked out glory. My mom laughed saying we must have scared the c**p out of the poor bus driver. She still has the pictures she took of us when we got back home.
That's a sitcom I would love... a group of monster friends and their misadventures
Okay, kids, next year we're going to skip the house of the drunk lady who threw things at you
Maybe too original. I wonder how many people got it without him or someone else telling them
Load More Replies...When we had Halloween parties in elementary school (4th or 5th grade), I borrowed one of my Mom's dresses--it was black & had thin fringe all over. Mom even taught me to do the Charleston so I could really get into the flapper persona! thankfully, this was in the 60s & no leisure suits in sight...my flapper costume was not a hit with the teachers, so i can only imagine i'd have been sent home if they thought i was a hooker!
hahaha.... in my 7th grade history class we did a "performance" of a 1900s speakeasy.
has anyone seen that Christopher Nolan movie called Inception its so good

im sure he was.. but then again she never mentioned his health afterward
Load More Replies...I find this dumb, the woman should know that's it's a haunted house, the zombies job is to scare people!
Unless in a truly wild turn of events she was tricked into going in there, or she got lost/confused.
Load More Replies...There're bathrooms in haunted houses...? Never been in one, honest question.
I hope she didn't use the bathroom in her pants when she got scared...
she shoulda paid attention to rule 3 for zombieland.... beware of bathrooms.... lol
If the zombie scared the p**s out of her he should have gotten a bonus.
Yes he had the right to scare. Imagine if one had to fill in a permission form everytime they went to a haunted house.
Basically when you throw eggs at typically neibours property

I am from the generation that brought pillow slips for TorT all over the neighborhood. My Mom strictly retricted our intake. 1 or 2 pieces a day only. I still had candy in February....blew my classmates away.
Just don't let them pig out on it. Or stock up on Pepto Bismol.

Thats so sad. But a good tip for avoiding Trick or Treaters - realistic looking stuffed animal on the steps. We had to turn off our doorbell as the the dogs would go frantic with excitement at every ring. We were not mean - we left a tub of sweeties out for the kids to help themselves.
Did the kids behave themselves and take one at a time, or immediately empty it?
Load More Replies...and every night since on halloween the meows will ring out in the night and send shivers down everyones spine
i wouldve laughed, then reprimanded him, then laughed again despite myself, then reprimanded him again to make my point, then given him like 5 pieces of candy for brilliance

Load More Replies...When I was 7, on of my bigger teeth came out. As always, the tooth went under the pillow for the tooth fairy. In the morning, I found a twenty dollar bill under the pillow..the most I'd ever gotten (usually I'd get a dollar.) I ran into the kitchen where my dad was sitting at the table and my mom was making breakfast. "Look!" I said "I got twenty bucks from the tooth fairy!" My mom said looking at my Dad "Wow..the tooth fairy was generous this time." To which my Dad replied "Well it was kinda dark so the tooth fairy couldn't really see what he..I mean she..was pulling out of her wallet."
Oh my gosh what is with all the puns today!!!!! Someone help meeeeeee

Load More Replies...We have a friend that's creeped out by garden gnomes. So some of his co-workers and friends started leaving gnomes at his desk, out side his car, on his front porch, in his driveway. The icing on the cake was when he left the house one morning to go to work and looked in the rearview mirror of his car only to see a gnome sitting in the back seat with a seatbelt on (his wife put it there.)
Omg😂😂😂😂😂 it's not funny yet it is. I feel ya, Rob. Clowns scare the c**p out of me...and I like creepy stuff so that's saying a lot.
That is so mean..I imagine if someone just threw a bunch of spiders at me I would last it too...needed therapy. Be careful with phobias!
Its not funny it's cruel a phobia is an illness and needs treatment. To cause a person that kind of unnessary stress and anxiety is truly heartless and shows a complete lack of empathy and compassion!
Yes, it did. When you flushed it, it goes straight into her stomach

Load More Replies...My sister let her German Shepherd out in the afternoons. The dog had the habit of wandering the neighborhood for hours at a time. She'd come up to the porch in the early evenings when it was getting dark to whine to be let in. My sister often opened the door without looking outside. Next morning, there is a sheriff's car parked on the street in front of the house. My sister saw the cops looking at and pointing at something on the lawn. My sister realized the dog had sifted through the garbage of the neighbor down the street and found the leg bones of a deer our neighbor had brought home from a hunt. They approached the gate to get a better look and my sister came out and looked at the bones. "They're deer bones" she said looking at them closely. "Well your next door neighbor thought she'd stumbled on a crime scene." they said. "Nope..just a curious German Shepherd that thought she found the ultimate gift for mom." She took them to the dump that morning.
(plot twist) What happened to the other half of the whiskey...
She sounds like a fellow Brit. Google "Heinz Baked Beans" for more info.
Load More Replies...Sorry, I don't get it. What is weird here? She looks great. Is it the sword?
Georgia? I suspect that just may be some recycled DragonCon cosplay.
I lost one of my lower molars as a kid while eating a piece of caramel--the tooth got stuck to the caramel and when I opened my mouth (while chewing), it just came out. Thankfully, I didn't swallow it.
I lost a tooth in a plate of waffles...it was sticky but salvageable. I lost 3-4 teeth brushing them..i brush very vigorously.
if that happens in my school the nurse gives us a lifesaver and sais " it will trick the tooth fairy"
#myparentsduringhalloween. I never got to trick or treat. :'(
Load More Replies...First year in Canada with two babies and a husband starting a job in another town from where we had rented a house. October 31st I hear noises outside and see people dressed weirdly on the street and realise in terror that it must be the previously unknown to me Halloween. No candy in the house. Maybe six apples in the fridge. Turned off the lights and sat in the dark without even a book to read since any light would have given me away. Still had people knocking on the door of a dark house yelling trick or treat for hours. Shook in dread that they'd wake one of the babies and I'd have to turn on a light. I hate Halloween!
My dad would take the batteries out of the doorbell and sit in the dark too x
some people are no fun. Unless it was religious, then please ignore my comment. ;)
My mom has a motto, "it's only funny till someone gets hurt, then it's hilarious.

There's always that person in the neighborhood that hands out toothbrushes. No one likes them.
There is a dentist in town that pays good money for ea pound of candy. Real dollars.
Bella, Edward and Jacob? What am I missing here? Should I know them?
LOL No !! Ignorance is bliss !! Forget all that you read here.
Load More Replies...Given the fact that the priest was there, I am inclined to think it was a church function. Also not all priest are uptight. Could be he just wanted to have a good time.
Load More Replies...Back in the 80s, our Prom King and Queen dressed like a priest and pregnant nun. Admin was not pleased, but my mainly Catholic friends were snorting with glee.
So am I, but religion should never be forced on anyone. Live and let live. I grew up with a religious mother and an Atheist father. I heard both sides, and was allowed to make a choice.
Load More Replies...Bible tract people, toothbrush people, and penny people are THE WORST. Pretty sure they're all going to hell.
The penny thing came from a time when UNICEF asked us to collect pennies for charity while trick-or-treating.

i got one of those, they pass them out at my church, the last thing he did was lie to his mom and now he's in hell
Jack Chick strikes again! My favorite Chick tract is still the 'DnD will lead to Satanism, murder, stealing, lying, and being rude.'
Omg same i was like four and i was like what.... What.... *bursts out in tears* except i think she had cancer
I want to be that house that hands out full sized candy bars but we live on a road where no one comes :(
U just discibed my great grandma’s house lol me and my brothers alwayed got the extra
Load More Replies...Another "why is that weird?" one. If you look like Katy Perry, people will think you're Katy Perry until you correct them. It's not weird if people don't know the difference. I've never seen Hunger Games, so I probably would have thought you were Katy Perry too, since I wouldn't get the reference on appearance alone.
Why is it weird? Because if you're dressed as a Capitol Citizen from the hunger games, people should be mistaking you for Lady Gaga. Perry's not nearly "out there" enough.
Load More Replies...My last year trick or treating, went to one house, knocked on the door, a woman answered and told me to wait there, went off, came back a few minutes later and told me loudly to "f**k off!" XD
I trick-or-treated through high school. The last year I dressed up as a space shuttle. Sadly I don't have any pics but it was a great costume.
Skip the house? After that, you should have taken a dump on their lawn every year...
Yep..she'd trying harder...but you have to give her some time..she's been a little constipated lately....
Load More Replies...Seriously. I had a friend get the glow stick liquid in his eye at a scout camp. He was definitely not having fun once that happened. It's bound to be worse to ingest it.
Load More Replies...Ingestion of a mouthful of the liquid from a glow stick is considered to be minimally toxic, causing only minor mouth or throat irritation. The liquid may also cause minor skin redness or irritation. If glow stick liquid is squirted into the eyes, it can cause eye injury because the eyes are more sensitive than the skin in the mouth or on the body. If the glow stick fluid is on the skin, wash affected skin with soap and water, and change clothes that have any liquid on them. It is important to wash off the liquid as soon as possible after the glow stick leaks. If the liquid sits on the skin for extended period, more serious skin injury can occur (such as blisters or chemical burns).

I get the feeling this guy might be making his entries up. I think there are at least three, if not more, and they all seem like jokes, rather than real "what the f**k?" moments.
Load More Replies...Lens cap indeed. Once, the Lions Club set up a haunted house. Each "room" wasset up and run by a different group. We got the "torture chamber and mad scientist". On Halloween night after closing, my friends wanted to "play with the Ouii board". 1. In a torture chamber 2. Upside down cross 3. fake santanic stuff 4. Midnight 5. Halloween I noped out before noped out was in.
One year at Labor Day, my neighbors' cat had 8 kittens. We took one, and their daughter took one, leaving six. Guess what he gave to trick-or-treaters unaccompanied by their parents that year!!
One year, I dressed up as a nurse and coincidentally witnessed a car accident. A panicked man at the scene started yelling at me to help take care of the victims because, "aren't you a nurse?" No sir, I just play one on tv. :/
For this year's, I opened the door, and there was this little kid with a full cute costume and make-up, but I didn't recognize what his character was. I asked him with a big smile: "How nice! Who are you supposed to be?" Without batting an eye (he didn't smile for a second, before, during and after) "I'm here for the candy!"... Well, OK! :|
Does anyone even have trick or treaters anymore? I used to love having the kids explain their costumes and I always gave more candy to the best one!
I get hundreds of them every year (same with my parents). We can easily give away 250-300 (if not more) bags of candies or chips.
