Be sure to add your home to Nextdoor’s Treat Map to find the best streets for treats! Mark your house with a candy corn icon if you’ll be passing out candy, a teal pumpkin if you’ll be providing allergy-friendly or non-food treats, or a haunted house icon to show that you’ve spooked out your home. Neighbors can then use the Treat Map to plan out a safe and efficient trick-or-treat route, visit allergy-free homes to make Halloween inclusive for all, and avoid the scary scenes if your little ones are too cute for a spook!
To ensure Halloween is the most stress-free celebration of all, we asked lifestyle expert Meaghan B. Murphy to share her tips and tricks on how to creep it real.
