It seems so weird to me that most kids now days go before it gets dark. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-is-trick-or-treating#post-1917139 Mon, 27 Oct 2014 09:55:22 +0000 NeekieRose 1917139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always on Halloween. I am surprised that it is ever not? How does that even logistically work? A town just arbitrarily says it's some other day? Also surprised by the hours some have posted. And again the logistics behind that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-is-trick-or-treating#post-1917137 Mon, 27 Oct 2014 09:54:49 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1917137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On Halloween.

Almost everyone in our neighborhood is dual income families so you won't get any candy before 6pm when everyone gets home from work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-is-trick-or-treating#post-1917111 Mon, 27 Oct 2014 09:38:46 +0000 LuLu Mom 1917111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always on Halloween.

There's only about 1.5 hours that we get a decent stream of trick or treaters. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-is-trick-or-treating#post-1917069 Mon, 27 Oct 2014 09:26:57 +0000 NavyRN2012 1917069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's always been on Halloween. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-is-trick-or-treating#post-1917061 Mon, 27 Oct 2014 09:23:57 +0000 JerricaBenton 1917061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: yeah. The halloween curfew in town is 8. It comes in waves though, the little ones early, then a lull until thr older oned come out, then really only a few from 7-8. A lot of people set the candy bowl on the porch at 7 or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-is-trick-or-treating#post-1917048 Mon, 27 Oct 2014 09:21:21 +0000 Mamaof2 1917048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JerricaBenton: wow 4.5 hours??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-is-trick-or-treating#post-1917026 Mon, 27 Oct 2014 09:13:27 +0000 JerricaBenton 1917026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always on Halloween, 3:30 - 8:00 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-is-trick-or-treating#post-1917003 Mon, 27 Oct 2014 09:04:46 +0000 alohaorchid 1917003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had no idea that there was even official times for trick or treating.
