  • Gangsters, Pranksters, and the Invention of Trick-Or-Treating, 1930–1960 S Samira Kawash
    Gangsters, Pranksters, and the Invention of Trick-or-Treating, 1930–1960 s Samira Kawash For most children in North America, Halloween is one of the most exciting holi- days of the year. But some critics insist that its emphasis on ready-made costumes, store-bought candy, and trick-or-treating seduces children into cultural passivity and socializes them to mindless consumption. These critics argue that trick-or- treating was an inherited tradition, invented, initiated, or imposed by adults to control undesirable Halloween mischief. This article turns to newspaper accounts from the 1930s through the1950s to suggest that these beliefs and conclusions about trick-or-treating are false and that, in fact, children originated trick-or- treating and shaped it to their own ends. In her view of trick-or-treating as part of the development of children’s culture in twentieth-century America, the author presents the role of children in initiating their own forms of play and contesting and negotiating such play with adults, all of which suggests a more complex understand- ing of Halloween and trick-or-treating in the contemporary context. Key words : beginning rituals; children as consumers; gangsters; Halloween; Halloween rituals; Halloween sadism; pranking; trick-or-treating When I was a kid in the late 1960s and early 1970s, Halloween was a very big deal. Picking a costume could take weeks. Then, there were special decorations on the streets, haunted houses, church parties, a costume parade at school, and most important of all, trick-or-treating. The neighborhood kids would all go together, with a parent when we were little, and with a high school neighbor when we got bigger.

  • Booking.Com's 12 Spook-Tacular Destinations to Celebrate Halloween and Day of the Dead
    September 19, 2017 Booking.com's 12 Spook-tacular Destinations to Celebrate Halloween and Day of the Dead NEW YORK, September 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The nights are getting shorter, the leaves are changing color and pumpkin patches are ready for harvest-that means the wait for Halloween is almost over! While Halloween festivities originally began hundreds of years ago as part of a Celtic harvest festival known as All Hallow's Eve, today it's a backbone of American culture. Cities from coast to coast celebrate the ghost and ghoul season with festivals, costumes, haunted tours and spine-tingling rituals that provide entertainment to revelers of all ages. For those who want to make the spooky season last a bit longer, Día de los Muertos (literally Day of the Dead) is celebrated on November 2nd and has grown in popularity outside of Latin America in recent years thanks to its colorful parades, iconic sugar skulls, ubiquitous marigolds, fanciful costumes and fiendish face paint. But how to choose from such an abundance of frightening activities? Don't panic! Whether you want to frolic in an extravagant costume or summon the haunted spirits of the night, Booking.com has harvested the 12 best locations to celebrate the spookiest time of the year. 1. New Orleans (Louisiana) With its hoodoo and voodoo, New Orleans is one of the top destinations for Halloween. Visit one of the many haunted houses or book a cemetery tour to admire the gorgeous tombs of the city. St. Louis Cemetery No. 1, the oldest and most famous cemeteries in the city, is the final resting place of voodoo queen Marie Laveau.

  • Why Isn't Trick-Or-Treating Always on Halloween?
    Curious Cbus: Why Isn't Trick-Or-Treating Always On Halloween? By MICHAEL DE BONIS • OCT 27, 2020 • PIXABAY Newcomers to Central Ohio are often confused about why trick-or-treating often does not fall on October 31. This led one curious resident to ask WOSU’s Curious Cbus, “Why is Halloween never on Halloween? This ‘Beggars Night’ makes no sense. Please help!” The idea of a Beggars Night – when children go door-to-door for candy on a day before actual Halloween – has a complicated history that goes back a century. Currently, the model for Beggars Night is for it to occur on Halloween, unless October 31 falls on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday. If that is the case, trick-or- treating is planned for the Thursday prior to Halloween. That's the case in 2020 as Halloween falls on Saturday, so Beggars Night will be on Thursday, October 29. Despite COVID-19 concerns this year, many are planning ways to trick-or-treat safely or participate in alternative Halloween activities. The current formula for Beggars Night was proposed by the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commision in 2008, but each municipality decides for themselves whether they want to follow the recommendation or not. Some are offended that trick-or-treating happens on any night besides Halloween, but in Columbus, celebrating Halloween has been a multi-night affair for decades. Downtown Halloween Parade One reason for the Beggars Night tradition can be attributed to the fact that Halloween became the night for parties and parades. Community-organized parties took place on October 31 and trick-or-treating was moved to the night before.

  • I Have Received Some Questions with Regards to Beggars Night 2020 and the Possible Impacts of COVID-19 on Our Festivities
    310 Mill Street P.O. Box 160 Van Meter, Iowa 50261-0160 Telephone: 515-996-2644 www.vanmeteria.gov From the Mayor’s Desk: I have received some questions with regards to Beggars Night 2020 and the possible impacts of COVID-19 on our festivities. Beggars Night will be set for October 31st from 6:00 to 8:00 PM. At this point in time, Dallas County Health Department has released guidelines and recommendations with regards to Halloween and Beggars Night. Conventional trick-or-treating is being deemed a high-risk activity and as such, I will be making some recommendations below to help reduce the risk associated with Beggars Night. As in the past, those houses wishing to participate in Beggars Night should turn on their outside lights to make trick-or-treaters aware. We would ask that trick-or-treaters be especially respectful of those houses that do not turn on their outside lights. Some families may elect to not participate in Beggars Night due to the COVID-19 pandemic so please be respectful of their choices. In an effort to minimize risks associated with trick-or-treating activities, I am asking that trick-or-treaters travel the neighborhoods in a one-way-traffic fashion, keeping at least 6 feet between family groups. The Department of Public Safety will be releasing a map depicting the one-way-traffic plan for Beggars Night. I would additionally ask that families take all efforts to hand out individually wrapped goodie bags as opposed to allowing trick-or-treaters to pick their own goodies.
