About Halloween

Halloween is always October 31. When it falls on a weekday, many US towns schedule trick-or-treating for the nearest Saturday instead, so check your city's announced hours; when it falls on a Friday or Saturday, expect the biggest costume and candy sell-outs of the decade.

Costume shipping is the real deadline: standard delivery from major online retailers needs orders in by roughly October 20, and pop-up costume stores start marking down on November 1. Pumpkins carved more than 3โ€“5 days early will sag, so carve on the last weekend.
