I'm not sure if the "Booing" tradition is nationwide. Basically, you fill a bag with treats, drop it and a "You've been Boo'd" sign on a neighbor's doorstep. They post the sign and repeat with a neighbor. It's all anonymous. You don't "Boo" where someone has been "Boo'd". Last year I took it to an adult level and left bottles of wine for a couple neighbors. Here's the poem I left with the "You've been Boo(z)ed"
As the winds grow more chill
and the nights come too soon
October brings a thrill
by the glow of the moon
Tis then the phantom walks
through the dark gloom of night
A furtive black cat stalks
and gives you quite a fright
Put your fears at an end
though witches roam the sky
Here are "spirits" we send
to help you get as high!
You've been "Boo(z)ed
For those to young to imbibe the brew
Herein lies something special for you.
I put one of those MS "Witches Brew" labels over the wine label and added a bag of Hershey's minis for homes with kids.
The neighbors loved it!
