Here in Des Moines, we do Halloween a little different. The Des Moines Register has a great article about the history, but basically we trick-or-treat on Beggars’ Night (October 30th) as a result of a crime and vandalism increase 80 years ago. And on top of that, and honestly one of my most favorite things about Halloween, kids tell jokes to earn their treats. [Check out my little fireman’s joke in the video at the end!]
