Think it’s over now, just around 60. Not good since I bought enough full size bars for close to 100

Slowing down pretty heavily here. Only 2 in the last half hour. Brings us up to 73 on the evening, highest we've ever had by quite a margin

We did that last year after just moving into a new house and not knowing what to expect... we ended up only getting about a dozen kids and having full size candy bars until Christmas.

We didn’t want a repeat this year, so we were relegated to the minor leagues - handing out mini bars

Tally this year was about 30 in Springbank Hill.

Exactly 50 kids. Gives me 22 chocolate bars to tide me over until Christmas I guess!

Not bad...much like the Flames, a terrible start but a solid finish here in Hillhurst. About 70 I figure. Hard to tell as I had quite a few nut free kids this year which threw off my count

We had 20 in woodlands. It’s sad we don’t get more because we love Halloween. We buy a lot of treats, and end up handing out fist fulls of the #### because we get so few kids.

25 in Scenic Acres...about average as we live a ways off the main drags, but seemed there were more kids out and about where we took the kids trick or treating.

Next year Halloween is on a Saturday...curious how that will affect the numbers.

30 tops in Inglewood. Kind of a GG, my lady really likes seeing the children and handing out candy, so she was bummed when it ended before 8.

Many folks take their kids to the Mall for trick or treating. That's lame.

Especially considering the weather was pretty nice last night. No excuses for going indoors.

I live there too and actually had a bit of a down year. Only 64 vs the usual 90+.

Any houses get egged near you? One group of kids came by to say there were some people egging houses and they were headed towards my direction. I stood out on the porch afterwards for about 15 minutes keeping a casual eye out but didn't see anything.

Also shoutout to the parents who were all dressed up and in the spirit. Especially the one dad wearing a blowup T-Rex costume. Costume of the night
