So, how many adults out there managed to scare the kids away from the door tonight? I played a variey of spooky noises on an outdoor set of speakers whilst shining a torch in their little faces as Jack (3yrs) opened the door and screamed!
Ah, the joy on their little faces as the wee puddled around their feet was a joy to behold. :rolleyes:
The little darlings will cross the road next year to pass MY house!:smt077:smt077:smt077
Stupid american frikkin' grumble grumble etc etc etc............

I've got a scary mask on and just open the door but hide behind it as if the door is opening on it's own, then as the kids look around I've been jumping out shouting. :smt077:smt077
so far only 2 kids have run away and not come back!!
When my lads were little........7 and 8........we had a large garage in our back garden which they and their friends used as a clubhouse. On Halloween night they all went out Trick or Treating, then came back to my house for a drink and a snack. While they were eating I told them all the story of The Searching Hand............a story I made up about a disembodied hand that wandered the earth looking for revenge on the person who had cut it off. After the story they all went out into their 'Clubhouse' to divvy up their spoils. I ran upstairs, put on a black shirt, and covered my right hand with white greasepaint I had bought specially. I sneaked downstairs, out into the garden, and crept up to the side window of the garage. I dipped my fingers in a tub of red poster paint, then slammed my white, paint-dripping hand against the window and scraped down it.
Have you ever seen eight 7 & 8 year olds trying to run through a six foot fence?

Every year, I plan to get a smoke machine, a tape of eerie sounds and screams, and some red lights, and fill the landing with evil smoke. But I never do :(

One group of 10 (or so) year olds actually dropped their bags of sweets. I'm in profit this year! Yay!!

They knock on my door and shout "Trick or treat". My standard reply is, "I will have treat please" and reach for their buckets of sweets etc.
No, you have to give us a treat. Err why. Because it is trick or treat etc.
Got to love the little kids. But once they get older. Damm american stupidity. They should join my mother and her cronies round the big pot
