    it's just a bit underwhelming. Kids knock on your door and you watch a scary movie. You don't even get a day off and it's not an all day thing it's just early night

      Yeah but you get to dress your kid up as a velociraptor or a ghost buster or something and then interact with people who live near you in a friendly way which doesn't exist outside of Halloween in this atomized hellscape. Plus it's way more than one day, I'm putting giant spiders all over my place for at least a month. The webs are hell to take down so I might even leave em up through November out of laziness lol

        that is true I just wish we culturally made more of a thing of it. If we are to treat it seriously as a holiday it should involve days off work and events
