Boo! your neighbors

Ever do this? I heard about it on the radio a few years ago.
You find some images of ghosts which you can print and cutout, then pick 2 neighbors and leave some treats on each of their porches along with the ghost cutout and a poem that says they now need to Boo! 2 other neighbors. Ring the doorbell and run. They're sposed to hang the ghost image on their door to show they've already been booed.
Methinks such a thing should be started on October 1st to usher in the month of Hallowe'en. See how many houses in your neighborhood get hit by the 31st.
Or you could be a bit more mischievous like me and do the Flaming Bag of Poo thing

My neighborhood used to "boo" each other starting around the first of October. It was so much fun being surprised with a a little bag or bucket of Halloween goodies. Its a great way to keep Halloween spirit alive in your area. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, my neighborhood stopped "booing" each other. If things go to plan, I think I am going to respark the Halloween spirit and start the booing once again.

Good for you! It should bring a lot of spirit to your neighborhood and that is always great. I think I'll start mine around October 1 so that way most of the houses in my neighborhood will be "boo'd" and the spirit will be shared to everyone.
