Trick-or-treating

Trick-or-treating was a tradition practised once a year on Halloween night. Children wore Halloween costumes and went door to door receiving sweets. Trick-or-treating was practised on Earth (PROSE: Forever Autumn) and Verticulus. (COMIC: Wholloween)

History[]

In 2007, Rick Pirelli went trick-or-treating with his friends Scott Beaumont and Thad Steiner. They planned on watching scary movies afterwards, but the trick-or-treating was brought to a premature close when Scott vomitted.

In 2008, Rick, Scott, and Thad planned on going trick-or-treating, but weren't able to due to the Hervoken trying to destroy their hometown. (PROSE: Forever Autumn)
