You would think with my penchant for graveyards that I would like Halloween more. Maybe I would like it more if kids respected the “porch light is out, do not approach” rule. Last year, I was home alone on Halloween night. We dont live in the safest of neighborhoods, so there is no way I am opening our door, at night, while alone. Just isnt going to happen. So I had the porch light out. But, at that point our blinds were a little see through so you could somewhat see what we were doing inside. I was on the couch watching TV. Apparently this meant that you can throw the porch light rule out the (see through) window. Those kids banged on the door, and yelled for me, for what felt like an eternity, while I sat with my back against the front door eating “their” candy. Eventually they got the picture and left. I finally conceded and just turned out the downstairs lights and went upstairs. I plan on staying upstairs all night this year.
Have a safe night tonight friends!!

Holy cow, that sounds terrifying! Entitled little berks. You should leave empty candy wrappers taped to your door this year, just to rub it in.
Haha, oh my goodness, I’m so glad you said this! I completely forgot that Halloween means kids are romping the neighborhoods begging for candy! I’ll be camping out upstairs this year too
my word! i would have been creeped out. i don’t blame you for staying upstairs all night tonight.
i would have done the same thing, ha! good thing our porch light bulb is already out…we should replace that one of these days
