Did tricks used to be a part of trick-or-treating?

Answered By Hanson Landgren, Editor


The idea of trick-or-treating is really to perform a trick as the travelling "souls" (referring to the children) are doing before the household will give a treat. While some of the households are offering candies in the doorstep of their house because of a belief that they will appease the soul that will visit them.
