Could Halloween Be Getting a New Date?

Last year the Halloween and Costume Association launched a petition to celebrate Halloween on the last Saturday of October instead of the 31st.

 

The theory is that the holiday could be celebrated in a more stress-free, family-friendly way where there is no school to contend with and trick-or-treaters would be able to scout the neighborhood for candy in the daylight hours, making it safer.

The petition has almost 59,000 signatures and it’s growing.

What do you think of celebrating Halloween on the last day of October?
