Interesting how an old Celtic holiday and some immigrant traditions morphed into what we know as Halloween today. Trick or treating was actually an extortion scheme to either get something good or trash your place. And wearing a mask helped to offer a disguise and treats helped to calm little hoodlums intent on causing mayhem. Amazing what a tiny snickers or 3 musketeers can prevent from happening.
yo, imma head out
