growing up outside of town and spending my teenage years getting to many of my friend’s houses in much more rural places, I do understand how trunk or treat could come about and make sense. hell, we used to get driven around from house to house in the country sometimes.
what I don’t understand is when it’s done in suburbia
Its so bizarre seeing the origin of such practices. Like i see how offroad vehicles, car based pasttimes, etc would make sense in the geeat wilderness but then the average person who has a pickup is joe, 45, who lives in suburbia and works as middle management for an office supplies company.
for us at that age, it was an awful lot of hide-and-seek in the woods. makes for a long scary game when you’ve got 10-20 kids spread out over a dozen acres.

Now I imagine in the country you can at least blow up pumpkins at midnight to make up for having to trunk or treat.
