    growing up outside of town and spending my teenage years getting to many of my friend’s houses in much more rural places, I do understand how trunk or treat could come about and make sense. hell, we used to get driven around from house to house in the country sometimes.

    what I don’t understand is when it’s done in suburbia

      Now I imagine in the country you can at least blow up pumpkins at midnight to make up for having to trunk or treat.

        for us at that age, it was an awful lot of hide-and-seek in the woods. makes for a long scary game when you’ve got 10-20 kids spread out over a dozen acres.
