Bizarre Stories About Halloween Trick-or-Treats

A Truly Scary Scarecrow

One neighbor cast a long shadow over the joy of trick-or-treating for an entire family. While it might sound dramatic, it holds a hint of truth. Their two-year-old was embarking on her first-ever trick-or-treat adventure, which naturally brought about a dose of hesitancy and shyness. The first house they visited had a scarecrow on the front porch, guarding a bowl of candy.

As the toddler was about to claim her candy, the scarecrow sprang to life, unleashing a loud yell. Understandably, the poor child was startled and terrified. While the “scarecrow” may have considered it all in good fun, our storyteller doesn’t share the sentiment. To this day, her child remains apprehensive about trick-or-treating.
