Halloween Trick-or-Treat
Trick-or-Treat
The most common tradition in today's Halloween, trick-or-treating, is a reenactment of Irish beggars going to the homes of the rich on All Hallows Eve to ask for food or money. If the rich refused, evil spirits, according to beggars, would destroy their homes. Immigrants then brought the idea from Ireland to America in the 1800s. Trick-or-treating would become widespread in the states by the 1940s. Costumed children went house-to-house asking for small handouts, usually candy. In return, no tricks would be played.
