Help! What’s the normal way for New Jersey to celebrate Halloween?

We are just about a week away from Halloween, and it’s making me nostalgic for my trick-or-treating days.

As a kid, one of the best nights of the year was Halloween: you dressed up with your friends, watched horror movies, and stuffed your face with candy.

An actual dream.

But each house that you go to has a different approach to how they celebrate Halloween.

There are those who go particularly hard with their decorations, some people spring for the full-sized candy bars, or there are those who turn off all the lights in the home so as to say, “don’t even ring the doorbell for your free candy.”

Do me a favor and answer these few questions to help me determine where New Jersey falls on certain Halloween debates.
