About all this would accomplish is you tripping over some little trick or treater. Where do they get these ideas? If I want to meet a witch all I have to do is visit someone in our local Pagan Community. I love the quote

Just a question I like to ask though. I know the first Jack O Lanterns were suppose to be made from turnips. I've never seen a turnip much larger than a baseball. Did they have bigger turnips back then. Or did they not hollow them out like we do the pumpkin? Did they just carve a face on the outside? I love Halloween (Samhain).
