Trick or Treat !!


Below are a few tips for those taking part in Trick or Treat!!

We all want every member of our community to feel safe on Halloween, whether staying at home or trick or treating with friends and family. If you are going out for the evening, here are five steps you can take to reassure your fellow locals and help everyone have a great night.

  • Be respectful to your local community - some older residents may not want to be disturbed on Halloween night. Try to only trick or treat at houses with Halloween decorations on display or a pumpkin outside, as that’s a sign they are happy to receive trick or treater's. Look out for homes with posters stating whether they are taking part in trick or treat and respect their choice.
  • Be scary but not too scary! Choose a costume that isn’t so frightening it gives locals nightmares and don’t jump out at people as they open the door, as this could give them a fright 
  • Keep noise to a minimum late at night 
  • If someone doesn’t answer the door, leave them be and move on to the next house 
  • Don’t visit homes more than once
  • Thank you,
