Trick-or-treat is a well-known Halloween tradition in the United Stated and other countries where kids dress up in costumes and go from house to house asking for treats - usually candies. If the kid doesn't receive a treat then he/she will perform a trick (mischief) on the owner of the house.

The hardest part when celebrating Halloween in New York is to decide what to do. No matter your age or scare tolerance the City has many things going on, not just on the day itself, but throughout October.
