I have a report of 420 in Mahogany. Kids, not weed. Can anyone verify?

80ish kids so far plus who knows how many I missed, prepared for 150 given the past few years so looks like will end up with a good deal left over for the first time in I can remember.

We're usually around 60 kids, but we've rolled past 80 and ran out of candy. Early bird gets the worm? Seems way busier than in the past (Douglasdale)

I don’t have any hard data to support my theory but if I had to guess I’d say there’s probably at least 420 kids living in Mahogany.

Looks like we’ll end up at 14 in Beddington which is pretty much what we got last year.

That's the great thing about these inflatables and these crazy 6' tall 14 year olds. even adults can get in on trick or treating now, nobody needs to know.

Shut it down at 300. Had a few try and come back for seconds. Caught two of them but two other snuck through the cracks when my kids were helping hand some out.

69 in Killarney, 10 down from last year, but about 10 higher than the average of other years. Both parents and kids dress up great in this neighborhood.

Final tally of 16. Not our lowest ever, but it only beat that number by 2.

Weeknight Halloween is a different beast from weekend Halloween. Around 40 kids between 545 and 715, two kids since. School nights are such a buzz kill.



2025 to 2027 is the sweet spot: Friday, Saturday, Sunday Halloweens. Gotta start planning.

we had 38 in kelowna - about normal for our neighbourhood. we usually just get the kids from the immediate area.... not many houses and hilly for the win!

50ish for me in East Vancouver, felt busier then last year. Bought 100 bars and they're all gone, so that's nice.

I'm tempted to become one of those crazy houses with insane scary decorations. I have one animatronic grim reaper that's a big hit but thinking to really go next level next year.

My last kid just as I was shutting down was dressed in a Flames jersey. He said trick or treat, so I said sure, since you're wearing a Flames jersey. He then said "yeah, and the Oilers suck", so he got 2 extra full size bonus bars. Gotta teach them early.
