Usually at Halloween I am at the caravan, so although I do have decorations I don't put them up as I'm not at home.
This year though, due to a family party I think I am going to be at home.
If that is the case, then I certainly will decorate the house.
I doubt we will have any trick or treaters coming round.
There are not many children where we live.
What do you do ...if anything ....for Halloween ?

@traceyjayne Nothing whatsoever. Same for Christmas (apart from yummy food). I can’t be doing with all the nonsense.

I turn off the porch lights for both doors and go to bed like normal. We don't have any kids in our immediate family and people in our city aren't supposed to be trick or treating (Sometimes people do it anyway.

I don’t decorate for much of anything anymore although I don’t believe I ever had Halloween decorations to begin with. Churches have Trunk or Treats around here, and kids tend to dress up for those. Our apartment complex has a small get together for the kids, to keep the kids from bothering any of the residents at night by trick or treating.

We live in a housing apartment complex where many of the residents are from countries that don't celebrate the holiday. So we don't get any treaters. I watch paranormal documentaries and scary movies. I believe in the veil between here and yonder being thinner at this time so I respect that.

@JudyEv. Halloween was never really a thing here when I was younger ....like a lot of things it has become popular over the last few years due to the American influence.
