Oh? That’s silly then… people have right whether they want to be annoyed or not on Halloween.
What I found out is that here, if houses are not decorated or inviting in any way… they are no go zones. There are a lot of houses done up that are inviting so that’s where kids know to go.

One hood and one not good. 2 x 10 yr old boys dressed up went to a house and heard a cry for help… an elderly woman fell and they saved the day! The other story was someone had put rat sak cubes in rat sak paper amongst lollies. They asked their mum if that was a trick?

I doubt very much that the second story is true.

It was on a current affair tonight with interview and photos.

I have no idea why we celebrate such a silly American event. It is a sad and sorry excuse for retailers to successfully sell chocolates and sweets (great for causing tooth decay and hyper kids)

With enough marketing - Australia might soon be caught up celebrating Thanksgiving next. That event should help sell lots of turkeys.

Totally agree Lisa.

In our little town, people who're happy to have kids
knocking on their doors sign up to a register okaying
it. This means that with parental input, no kid turns
up at one's unlisted door wearing a Disney princess
or a Jack Sparrow outfit, begging for a free sugar fix.

No. As a kid, we found out that some Whalan kids did exactly that to at least three households.
