I live in a very rural area, but the my general routine here is I get dressed up (some parents do, some don't...I do) and head to town with my kid, where tons of people walk up and down main street with their kids, going door to door. It's almost a sort of block party/street fair feel to it. Laughing, playing dress-up, getting candy. Then, once it gets a bit later and the kids had gotten a lot of candy, it kind of dies down. Then I'll either drop my son off with his mom or my mom and hit some adult parties, where the adults are dressed up and drinking and having a good time. Halloween is the only holiday I really like. Well, aside from Mardi Gras.
