Oh my god! What a night! All night long kids have been coming round and demanding candy; all dressed as fiends. Is there no peace?
By the end of it I was standing on my front lawn in my underwear shaking my fist and screaming
"Just leave me alone! Why won't you all just leave me alone?!!"
The children are fleeing in mortified tears and there are a couple of adults in the street who keep yelling "Turn out your porch light! Just turn off your damn porch light!!"
And I'll tell you what: if this weren't so much fun I would just turn out the light and be done with it. But I really think I hit my stride this year - there were some genuinely frightened faces out there tonight! :)
That's an epic way to do Samhain, Xix. I dig it. If those little bastards want a little thrill, you'll deliver. Besides, they'll remember your house long after the candy has been eaten. I'm certain their nightmares will be worth the stories they'll get to tell when they get older.
ReplyDeleteExactly, plus they ALWAYS stay well away from the house, and never go on the lawn... ;)
