The last few Halloweens I think I've done some permanent psychological
damage to some young'ns who come begging 8~).

I used to dress up as Dracula and go for their necks before I give the
candy.  I stopped doing that when they started pissing on my porch.  Two
years ago I hid in the bushes right by the door and bandaged up my arm.
As the little ones walked by, I'd grab at their ankles.  I could never
reach or even touch them, but they too started wetting their pants and
some parents got upset.  Come on!  It's Halloween, you're supposed to get
scared!

This year, I'm living in a house with a lot of really weird people.  We
have a lot of big trees in front of our house and we got a lot of leaves
which we piled up really high.  Two guys hid in the pile.  I would sneak
up behind the little beggars and pretend to be tricker treating with them.
When I passed by the pile of leaves, the two guys grabbed my legs and
dragged me in kicking and screaming.

You've never seen kids run so fast in your life.

In all cases I think we left a permanent scar on their psyche.  Ya!
