Brentwood, NH celebrated their annual TRICK OR TREAT last evening, Oct 30th from 5pm to 7pm. There were all kinds of strange happenings in the neighborhood of Windy Brook Farms Subdivision as well as some traditions started back in 2003 when the area was being developed.
Each door had a Ghost posted indicating that the homes in the subdivision had been "BOOed" during the weeks preceeding.
This is a tradition started by the founding members of the subdivision where one member of the neighborhood leaves a container of Halloween related items ie. candy, flashlights, glow sticks, etc. on the doorstep of a neighbor, rings the bell and quickly hides so as not to be discovered, as the recepient opens the door to the surprise.
They in turn go within the next day to another neighbor with a container full and repeat the process. In order that no one family gets "BOOed" again they post a ghost in their front window or on the door. The kids get a kick out of carrying on this tradition under the cloak of darkness.
Another tradition developed in Windy Brook Farm Subdivision is that of the Annual Halloween Hay Ride. Homeowner, John Carmillia, hooks a wagon to his tractor and pulls the kids out of the neighborhood to the nearest condominium complex, Windsor Meadows, so they can terrorize Trick or Treat there.
This I am sure is just a taste of some of the traditions in Brentwood, NH for Halloween. If you know of others, please feel free to share them here.

hey Jude...sounds like it was a fun night for all. May I suggest you add this to the localism channel and not the active rain one... :)
Moni - I just sent you over my real estate show pictures of my grandchildren. Wait til you see Colby. Thanks for the localism tip.
Judy these people are pretty creative and really seem to get into the spirt don't they. They must be Yankee fans ......... LOL
Tell you what George - you come for Halloween next year dressed up as a Yanks fan and we'll see what happens!!!!!!! LOL
so what did everyone wear, I saw a lot of Michael Phelps costumes which made me smile, and some Heath Ledger 'Joker' Costumes from Batman which made me a little melancholy
I saw that...What was Colby??? A girl...blonde wig? I cracked up looking at those pictures.
James - the kids were dressed as all kinds of characters - my grandsons were - spiderman in black and the bail bondsmens wife! the spiderman is 5 and the bail bondsman's wife is 12. i was laughing so hard when I saaw him.
Moni - yes it was Colby in the blond wig!! He was a hoot playing the bail bondsman's wife.
