OK, something seems to be different here. We celebrate Halloween on October 31st.
When is it in the U.S.?
Yeah, It's October 31st here too. We just like to put up our decorations early. Now trick or treat night is never on the 31st here is usually anywhere from the 28th of the month to the 30th.They awlways pick another day than the 31st for trick or treat. Then trick or treat is only like a couple of hours. But trick or treat night here is always a lot of fun. With it being a small town and everyone knowing everyone. The kids run for those two hours an have so much fun. The local cops patrol and the sherif comes. The pass out candy to the kids from the patrol car. The guy who looks like Skip with the paper hat hands out free cotten candy. It's like a Norman Rockwell painting. I Love this town!
He comes over here to smoke cigars,his wife won't let him,he doesn't know I know that.

I understand. Here in Germany there's no big Halloween celebration like in the US. Some people don't celebrate it at all. You can't even call it "celebrate". I'd say Halloween celebrations did not happen in Germany until the early 1990s when it slowly started.
We have a couple of kids in the neighbourhood who want candy. And me and my friends go to a certain castle here (Burg Frankenstein) where people dress up and celebrate Halloween. Sometimes people jump out of dark corners and try to scare you (last year I almost knocked one out by accident). Sometimes fake guts are lying on the ground, people with fake chainsaws hunt you and so on. It's fun.
