Hey now, Halloween is my favorite holiday, and I am of the firm opinion that it should revolve almost entirely around providing the best possible experience for the kids. If that makes me a curmudgeon, so be it.

This how I feel mostly.
It's fun for all who want to participate.

Thought back and my family always decorated for the holidays even the restaurants.
But then I remembered I was the one who decorated the outside of our house mostly.
And handed out candy.

For me Halloween is an American custom or tradition if you will.
Hate to see it fade away from as big a deal as it was.

Halloween is a opportunity to be creative decorate and make for a different day and maybe even something fun and special.

I try to go overboard so the twelve or so kids in our neighborhood will maybe someday also decorate and celebrate Halloween when they are older, and remember that nut that used to put all the blow molds and candy pails in his yard.
