    Here in the US, where I’m at, it was tradition, not sure if it still is, to go around egging people and cars on “devil’s night,” the night before halloween.

    Unless you are from detroit, in which case they burn down houses instead. Often the many abandoned houses taken over by drug gangs and crackheads and the like. Entire blocks have just one house on them, mounds where the old houses used to be. From 1.5 million in the city proper pre 1960’s era riots, (they rioted before it was popular for other reasons than the big ones which they also participated in after MLK got shot,) to less than 800k people now. It’s a huge city square mileage too. Idk if 100 square miles, but at least 10 deep and close that that wide I think.
