Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year over at "One Geek to Another", and so I was thrilled when the great folks at Flames Rising asked me to do a guest blog on etiquette for the spooky holiday this month! From my desk to yours, here's 13 ways to have an awesome (and polite!) Halloween! Lights Out! – Every kid knows that the porch light on means a house is fair game for Trick-Or-Treating on Halloween night. But sometimes lit decorations and dark houses or porch lights that are left on when no one is home can lead to confusion, frustration – and wasted time waiting for someone to answer the door which could be better spent gathering more holiday loot! If you're in for the evening, but out of candy (or choosing not to partake in the holiday give-away) pull your curtains, turn off exterior lights and try to keep the windows that are visible from the street as dark as possible. If you're going to bed or leaving for the evening, consider bringing in (or turning off) lit holiday decorations on Halloween night. As well, leave the house dark and the porch light off as a courtesy to the little ghosts and goblins. Bring a flash light with you when you leave, to light your way back into the house though! Emergency rooms are not the kind of Halloween tricks that anyone enjoys! Lights On! – The reverse is, of course, also true! If you are encouraging Trick-or-Treaters, be sure to leave your porch light on, along with whatever other exterior lighting you can muster. Jack-o-lanterns and other spooky illuminated decorations that would look best in the dark can be arranged in windows, shadowy spots of the yard or far corners of porches, but no amount of atmosphere is worth a preventable injury to your guests. Be especially careful about removing or highlighting any dangerous bits of terrain between the sidewalk and your front door. Safety First! – Jack-o-lanterns, luminarias and candle light are all awesome for setting a spooky mood, but using open flame is an invitation to disaster around dangling costume sleeves, long hems and flammable accessories! Considering using battery-powered tealights or plug-in light-strings for both exterior and interior decorations if you're going to be having company for the holiday. As well, if you or your guests are going to be dancing, walking or engaging in other physical activities in costume, think about lighting, especially on stairs or rough terrain where folks could trip and hurt themselves. I'm an author of "One Geek to Another" a weekly column of advice and etiquette for the modern lifestyle. I also writes professionally in the fashion styles. "One Geek to Another" and other examples of mine can be found at http://redpumpssale.com/
