Trick-or-Treat Friendly Streets in East Dulwich โ€‹๐ŸŽƒ


Recommended Posts

Hi Neighbours!

With Halloween fast approaching, let's make it easy for families to find those welcoming, spooky doorsteps around East Dulwich. If your street is planning to hand out treats, share the location here! It'll help families plan their routes & make sure no little ghouls & goblins miss out on the fun.

Looking forward to a safe & festive Halloween
๐ŸŽƒ


Here's one of our oh-so adorable little lions @ twb. as we're all getting into the Halloween spirit!

Think this year I might encourage the kids to go to the family mausoleum and pick up some goodies and relics, which will ready them for yule, life, birth, and for hell (which isn't an eternally bad place, it's just where you can have a wash before you're born again) and then rebirth.ย 

Or I might ply them with processed factory trash riddled with sugar after having ordered online their obsolete costumes made by slaves in Asian sweatshops.ย  ย X

Please stick to your own streets.ย  I don't understand why you need to go further.ย  We are pretty child friendly round our way.ย  Pumpkins are often put out to say it is OK to knock.ย  Why do you think it is OK to other locations.

To me, itโ€™s ย bizarre to go to streets and ring strangersโ€™ doorbells purely for the reason of getting free sweets. ย  There needs to be some interchange with the people who are giving you sweets, they are supposed to vaguely recognise you even though you are costumed and say how great you look which hopefully you do. ย The trick or treaters should know who you are. ย Iโ€™ve heard too many older bratty children (age 10 plus+) walking the streets round here and audibly saying how great it is to be given free stuff while not even wearing a costume. ย  The tiny children are the only ones Iโ€™d have any time for now. ย  ย I lived in North America for a while as a child and we only went round our local streets and rang the doorbells of people we knew. ย When I was too old to trick or treat , it ย was fun to hand out the treats while seeing kids you knew, younger brothers and sisters of your school friends, ย and who had spent time and effort organising their costumes. ย Some of our neighbours with garages organised bobbing for apples and had hot mulled non alcoholic cider and donuts for both children and the grownups. ย

    • The whole trick or treat thing is bizarre, another imported & unwanted tradition, the only winners are the shops who sell the costumes and sweets.ย 
    • Leon recently fixed ongoing issues weโ€™ve had with our lighting circuit and switches in the kitchen. He was very responsive and came back multiple times until we had a good working solution. Thank you and highly recommend!

    • I am all for residents clearing leaves, see my earlier post. But most won't. A few of us do. Do you?
