In our neighborhood, the kids get from 530 to 730 to T or T, which is total crap imo. when i was a kid we stayed out till all the porch lights were off and our feet hurt from tromping to distant areas to scavange for candy. my parents would do a super cool haunted house complete with dry ice "fog" and awesome SFX make up (thanks to my dad the artist) and the whole area would get into it.
i have no issue with ppl not celebrating halloween but, like so many other have said, keep it to yourself! there was a time when the kids who didn't go T or T were the odd ones (usually jehovas witness) but it seems times are a changing. i, personally, will always dress my minis up in the scariest costumes i can create and go begging for candy with them.
