4. We decorate "significantly" for Halloween

We do a large graveyard with a iron fence around it. We have a gallows with a hanging ghoul. We have a haunter maze for the kids to run through with all kinds of scary things in it. We love Halloween.

8. used to...

when my kids were young, we started with a chilly hayride (large hay wagon drawn by our tractor) trick-or-treating around the neighborhood... a large bonfire waiting when we got back and then the haunted house (I would turn my entire large farmhouse into a scary maze (with neighbors helping.. dressed up to meet the kids at each turn in the hallways) I LOVED it!

kids are gone and now I live in a small house off the beaten path memories are wonderful though!

9. kids are gone here too

But the grandkids and great-grandkids still love it. The BOSS, just told me she wishes we had as much room as you have.
We get no help from our neighbors because we are the only blue dot in this little red town. Have fun and good luck

5. In over thirty years at my house, no trick or treater has ever come.

It's too scary.

7. Here the little ones

leave crying or won`t get out of the cars. But the bigger kids just jump out of the car no trick or treat just (give me my candy and leave). Me and THE BOSS thinks that's so sad.

11. YEs, big old inflatable illuminated pumpkin head,

a couple of strings of kid friendly lighted staked characters. Neighborhood goes big for trick-or-treaters. BIG hauls for them that night. A few streets down, Halloween party in a cul-de-sac every year, mostly for the adults to drink and eat and socialize

[walkerbait41]

12. Sounds like fun,

I wish we had that no one but us in this town.

21. Love Halloween - too bad it is only one day

My favorite story is from @ 15 years ago.
Our now SIL came over with our daughter - his folks never did Halloween (even to give out candy).
So that year we got a Frankenstein monster head that stuck into the ground and put it by the sidewalk. I got a voice thrower and put it in Franky's head and hid in the bushes.

The daughter and SIL gave out candy and I said hello to the kids walking by. One little boy @ 3 and I had a conversation. I told him he better go get some candy. He turned to his dad who was laughing his butt off and said "He said I better go get some candy." and he took off like a shot.

SIL had a great time - his first real Halloween.

ETA - the head got busted up that night

22. Great story, sorry about Frankenstein head.

We don`t understand why people are the way they are.

What we have for the kids and adults that stay and take pic and look at our display is interactive. In one part of the display if you talk things happen, In another part of the display if you step on matt things happen. For the kids and adults that just jump out of their cars all they get out of our display just candy. And we give out a very good treat bag. We have spent $150 on candy alone.
