It was not the warmest night for Halloween in Alberta this year, but many brave souls ventured out to hunt for candy. While some dressed up at work, others were amused by the random sightings of monsters. A slower turn out of trick-or-treaters was expected as temperatures dipped low.

Those that ventured out remembered to dress warmly for the cool night:

  • Stay away from anyone playing with firecrackers

  • Don’t go near any animals you do not know

  • Never go into alleys, parking lots, wooded areas, or vacant lots

  • Start trick-or-treating early and finish early

  • Always stay in your own neighbourhood and know where there is a safe house that you can go to if you need help

  • Wear good shoes, such as runners, so you won’t trip. Be very careful if you wear high heels or have a long costume

  • Never eat any fresh fruit or home-made treats unless you know where they came from

  • Do not eat any of your treats before you get home. Have your parents check all the candy so that they can throw away anything that is not wrapped in a sealed wrapper

  • Cross the street in a crosswalk or at a well-lit corner. Look both ways before crossing the road

  • Leafy Sidewalk

    Use the sidewalk. Do not run across lawns or gardens

  • Halloween Decor 2012

    Wear make-up instead of a mask. You will be able to see better if you are wearing make-up

  • For adults attending nightclubs and other licenced premises, a reminder that you still need to be identifiable, whether wearing a mask or make-up

  • Do not go inside the house or car of anyone you don’t know

  • Do not go to houses that have their lights out

  • Dress warm, including a hat and mitts

  • Wear a bright-coloured costume with reflective tape, and carry a flashlight - drivers might not be able to see you in the dark

  • Do not go trick-or-treating alone; Let your parents or responsible person know where you will be and for how long
