Trick-or-treating is a fun and spooky tradition that children love! It's a time to dress up in your favorite costume, knock on doors, and yell "Trick or treat!" in exchange for candy.
On a crisp autumn night, the streets are filled with children of all ages, dressed up in their best costumes. They're witches and wizards, superheroes and villains, princesses and pirates, and everything in between. They're all excited for one thing: trick-or-treating!
The smell of candy is in the air as the children go from door to door, knocking on doors and yelling "Trick or treat!" The homeowners are ready for them, with bowls full of their favorite candies. The children fill their bags with chocolate bars, lollipops, gummies, and more.
It's a night of fun and excitement for everyone involved. The children love dressing up and collecting candy, and the homeowners love seeing the children's costumes and making them happy.
