The tradition has its roots in the belief that during Halloween, the spirits of the dead and other supernatural creatures roam the Earth. People believed that offering food or gifts to spirits and creatures could appease their fury and provide protection. Today, the "Trick or Treat" tradition is a fun and joyful activity. Children dress up creatively, often wearing costumes of monsters and other scary characters, and visit homes in their communities. They ring the doorbell or knock on the door and say "Trick or Treat." Residents, in turn, distribute sweets and treats as a form of reward. However, there is an implicit element of mischief in the tradition. If residents don't offer sweets or treats, children can playfully do some light mischief, such as throwing toilet paper on the trees or ringing doorbells and running away.
