My sister is 23 and still dresses up and goes out knocking doors for candy… and I find it weird but I let her do her. It got me thinking, at what age do you think someone should stop Trick r Treating at? Just curious.

In Mexico, there are two dates for “trick or treat”. One is for kids (the Day of ~the Holly Innocents~ All the Saints) and the next day is for Day of the dead or Día de Muertos, which is for everyone, in a clearly adult-centric celebration. The treats in the first day are candy-like, in the second day it’s very-Mexican-food-like.
Ask your sister which one would she celebrate. The rightest answer is both, the right is one or the other, the wrong is none.
Also, if she’s watching after some kids, that’s great and deserves a treat. Ultimately, as this post and comments suggests, it all depends on the people’s heart.
I would put together a costume if it meant I could go trick-or-treating and get tamales and empanadas instead of candy.
That’s extra cool, tbh. We have our own traditional costumes but regular people are only required to pay respects to the dead to be invited some tamales, home-made bread and all kinds of things. See, the thing is you are invited to eat whatever the dead loved to eat and drink. So, put together each home with their own dead people, this amazing Mexican gastronomy and some homes mixing their ancestry with other cultures (I’m loosely related to a Mexican-Chinese family, for example), it can be pretty wild in the stomach, but just marvelous.
Yes, this sounds potentially awesome.
