Halloween

[Nebulous's iconNebulous]

I used to love Halloween as a kid.

These days don't do anything for it really. Sometimes will dress up, usually if I work that day.

I've never dressed up and gone to work, thought about it though.

No. I dislike the little brats.

Aww, they're not all brats. They just want to have a little fun and get some candy.

I am generally fond of Halloween but how I mark the day has evolved.

There was the period pre-child when I usually went to a friend's party or watched horror movies (or watched horror movies at my friend's party).

Then there was post-child when I either shelled out or took my son out

Then he progressed to going to parties instead of going out so I backed off on trick or treat as well.

Now he lives 6 hours away and is married so I usually just stay in my den and read some classic ghost/horror stories. Often something fromGhost Stories of an Antiquary by M.R. James or other writers of that vintage.

Maybe when grands arrive I will get back in the trick or treat game

Pretty much the same evolution for me. My daughter is grown and still wants to go trick or treating!
Do you get a lot of trick or treaters at your house?

I do whenever it lands on a work day. Usually dress as a ferret.

Of course you do.

Halloween is my partners favourite holiday, she’s already planning it.

No, don't celebrate it much at all. I used to go trick or treating, then just stopped one day. I just can buy my own candy if wanted and own snacks. I usually just stay home and treat it as just another day.

Sounds like it! You're even having a halloween themed wedding, which sounds fun
