FAQ: Is Halloween the Perfect Time for Neighborly Pranks?

Is Halloween a good time for playing pranks on neighbors?

Halloween is traditionally associated with playful mischief, making it a popular time for pranks.

How can I ensure my Halloween pranks don't go too far?

To ensure your pranks don't go too far, keep them light-hearted and avoid anything that could cause fear, injury, or property damage. It's also a good idea to know your audience; pranking someone who doesn't appreciate it can lead to negative consequences.
