I think mine will be going outside the front door within the next few minutes - have you done yours yet or am I too early?

Had about 20 kids already!

Bucketing down here so I doubt they'll be many out. I've not put our lights on yet and am still cooking dinner so any knocks will be ignored until later

Put it out at 4.45 had lots of very polite trick or treaters already

@Cherrysherbet

My tea lights are inside a closed pumpkin with 4 holes, no chance of fire (and pumpkin is up high on a pillar!).

Lit mine with fake tea lights over an hour ago. \we normally have loads but currently only had two small children. I've never known the estate be this quiet, let alone on Halloween!

I need some T or Ters as I have far too many sweets for me alone!

gogohmm · 31/10/2022 17:49

I've never even seen fake tea lights to be honest, where do you buy them?

^ Poundland. I've pick all the refreshers out the pick and mix- I'm bad I know

It's absolutely lamping it down with rain here so I don't expect many at all tonight. My DS x 2 are in charge of any hardy souls that knock

I have an LED light thing and it’s got a remote to change colours ive done it red and it’s making the pumpkin look very menacing ….

a few houses down our road have pumpkins out but no trick or treaters. I feel like if no ones knocked on by 7 it’s too late for little kids then and no one will bother 😞😞

Our neeps went out at 5.30pm! Had 8 guisers so far.

I think we've had about 50 now

ellieboolou · 31/10/2022 18:56

I'm turning ours off in 10 minutes only had one knock was pouring with rain so we only stayed out 20 minutes.
Thank god it's all over now 😁

Anjo2011 · 31/10/2022 18:57

I’m over it now. It’s a busy one tonight, where does everyone come from. It started at 4.30 and it wasn’t even dark !

TheRealKatnissEverdeen · 31/10/2022 19:01

Still going strong here but we are almost out of treats! We've had about 70 I think.

ShesThunderstorms · 31/10/2022 19:41

We eventually had 3 knocks- it's been absolutely hammering it down all evening so I made them all take loads as they were all drenched bless them!
I'm now sat eating the leftovers as the kids are in bed and DH has gone out to the gym so the pumpkins are in.
