In the past, well, in my entire adult life, I've only lived in one house where we actually got Trick-or-Treaters. I've lived in many houses, by the way, and been adult (well, sort of) for many years. We lived in that house for 3 Halloweens. We had the lights off while we took our own kids out, but turned them on to give candy afterwards.
I must admit, I got both good candy and not-so-good candy. And I mostly gave away the not-so-good and ate the good myself.
