Devils Night

Devil's Night is the evening before Halloween, on October 30th. In some places, especially in Detroit, Michigan, it became known for mischievous activities like playing pranks or causing minor troubles. Long ago, some people would start fires or do other bad things, which made it scary. But not everyone does this! Many people instead use the night to enjoy fun, safe activities with friends and family, like carving pumpkins or telling spooky stories. Cities have worked hard to make Devil's Night a fun and safe time for everyone, so it's not as scary as it used to be.

How to celebrate Devils Night?

On Devil's Night, you can have fun by making spooky decorations with your friends, like fake spider webs and carved pumpkins. You can also tell ghost stories and watch a not-too-scary Halloween movie with your family. Make some tasty Halloween-themed treats, like cookies shaped like ghosts and marshmallow monsters. If you have a backyard or big space, you can organize a mini treasure hunt with small toys or candies hidden around. Remember to dress up in a funny or spooky costume and be safe if you go outside. Most importantly, enjoy your time and have lots of fun!
