i think it's regional. i've lived some places where EVERYONE gets in on the action, and other places where it's not like it used to be.
overall though, the holiday has changed. now there are kids who don't dress up, they just come to the door in their school clothes, you ask them what they are and they say "rapper." it's turned into a day to get free candy. the reason for the holiday seems to have taken a back seat. it saddens me.
we still decorate the house, have the spooky music on, carve the pumkin, all that. cause halloween is my FAVORITE holiday EVER!!!!!
