Neighborhood trick-or-treating tips:
- In Central Florida, trick or treating officially begins as soon as the sun sets on Halloween, October 31.
- Who hands out candy on Halloween? If your neighbor displays Halloween decorations and/or their indoor lights are on, then you can almost guarantee they will be handing out candy on Halloween.
- Trick-or-treating etiquette 101: wait for neighbors to hand out the candy. If they offer for you to take from the bowl, limit to one or two pieces. It’s the polite thing to do.
