Halloween has ended. We've all survived.

And we heard her declare as she flew out of sight, "Happy Halloween to All, and to All a Good Night."

There was no trick or treating in the early 20th century. #Halloween was mostly about parties and pranks such as barricading a school with a chicken coup in #Waterford, #NY in 1918.

The Pumpkin Palace in #Hillsboro, #Ohio in 1909.

I hope they didn't charge people to go into this.
Kind of lame, even by 1910 standards

Some people put a lot of thought into their costumes.

Some didn't.

If you have a group of witches stop by, hopefully they will only stay for a short spell.
