The Death of Halloween

I went out for Halloween this year to do some trick or treating for the last time because hey im in the last year of highschool so why not. I noticed that there was not a lot of people going house to house early one but i thought it just must be too early. As the night went on I began to realize that there were not many people going around at all. No its not like the streets were empty, but, when I was a kid i remember the streets being filled with kids just like me all dressed up and full of spirit.

I feel as if Halloween is dying, like all the kids parents are possibly too lazy to take their kids out and don't encourage them too or maybe they just take the easy way out and wait untill all the left over candy is on sale. If thats the case then its a real big shame, Halloween is a time of fun and a great holiday event to celebrate.

Halloween needs a re-birth. The streets need to be over-run with candy maniac kids again and more citizens needs to decorate their houses to scare the lights out of trick or treater's, because thats the whole point.
