When I was younger I would look forward for Halloween. Not for the candy, but for the movies and television shows that came on every year. I still look forward to the Halloween movies and love to watch them every year. My favorite at that time was "The Worst Witch" with Fariuza Balk.
Sure I went trick or treating with my younger siblings, but in the end, my sister and I would get a large bowl and dump our candy in it for everyone to share. Growing up we were given a lot of candy so it wasn't really a big thing for us, candy was a treat we had to earn.
One year, however I had gotten sick and was stuck in the house. I was totally miserable watching everyone moving house to house trick or treating and I was stuck inside in bed with a fever. I decided that I was going to create my own Halloween fun.. so I grabbed two rolls of toilet paper and climbed out my bedroom window.
I covered my from yard bushes with toilet paper and then climbed back through my bedroom window and curled up in bed. When the family came home, I had been home with my dad who was watching his westerns in the living room, they were all excited because the front of the house was tp'd.
My Aunty came over the next day to check on me, she lived two houses down and across the street. She winked at me then proceeded to tell my folks that she saw two kids do it. She had seen me do it the whole time. lol That is one Halloween I will never forget.
