My kid talked me into getting a hot dog costume for our kitty. I warned her that the cat would kill us in our sleep but she didn't care.

Sadly this is the last year of trick or treating for my daughter. She'll be 14 and in high school next year and I told her she'll be too old. We'll give out candy instead which I love doing and still celebrate Day of the Dead.
This is part of her loot - we weighed it and she got 5 pounds/ 2.3 kgs!! She did get a whole candy bar. The homes that give out whole candy bars are legendary in kid-world.

My little brother always stocks up on whole candy bars and gives those away. We have never gotten anybody at our house. We're the only inhabited house in the middle of the block on our side so that might have something to do with it.
Now begins the part of Halloween I always liked best: the child hides their loot and the parents have to find it steal some. Never gets old.

Your brother is probably legendary in his neighborhood with those whole candy bars.
Your house is a little isolated and I'm not too surprised you don't get any trick or treaters. You could wait outside your door with a table and a bowl of candy if you were so inclined, though!
One of my coworkers gives out glasses of wine on Halloween to parents as they're walking around with their kids.

It cracked me up when I saw it on Fb I'm not sure if I even commented before going to youtube to look for it. Were you the one who posted it? Major belated kudos if I ran off without commenting.

Oh, don't kid yourself, kitty cares. This aggression will not stand. While you sleep, kitty plots your demise...

Exasperated mom scolds dad who is way into Halloween
Quote:Sabrina Zimmerman couldn’t mask her horror when she was driving home and spotted her husband, Evan Zimmerman, dressed as Michael Myers from the 1978 slasher film "Halloween."
“There’s something about Michael with the white face and the way he walks,” Evan, 36, told TODAY Parents. “He creeps people out more than anybody.”

She better put up with it. Or he'll fucking stab her.

If I saw this guy coming I'd definitely hide behind the chainsaws.

Yeah, it was my kid who didn't care about my kitty homicide warning. She wanted the costume even if the cat murders us. Maybe it's worth it to her?
The cat still gives us side eye after the hot dog costume and if we dress the kitty in an outfit like in the YouTube catwalk videos my kid and I might as well immediately change our identities and go into hiding.

As we were trick or treating on Halloween there was a man dressed as a scary clown holding red balloons skulking around in front of a home. I think he was supposed to be from Stephen King's "It"?
He was a little too into his role though. I had a weird feeling when he approached us and started talking to us in a "scary" voice. He ran an entire block to sneak up behind some young kids and jump at them.
Also, this was the same neighborhood that the Golden State Killer lived in for 30+ years before he was arrested last year. We trick or treated down his street before he was caught but I've no idea if we knocked at his home or not. I'm glad he's gone.
