When families moved across the world, they brought their Halloween customs with them. In North America, kids started dressing up and asking for candy from house to house.

At first, it wasn’t organised, everyone did it their own way. But by the early 1900s, newspapers were using the phrase "trick or treat," and kids were going door to door asking for sweets while promising not to play pranks. 😘

By the 1950s, trick-or-treating was everywhere! Cartoons, films, and community events helped make it a huge part of Halloween.
