mine was difficult. i never have liked it. luckily, i'm in a place where i don't get trick or treaters, so it was one less anxiety provoking situation to endure and didn't have to shut off lights and pretend i wasn't home/put a sign on the door.

i had some kind of traumas/weird things happen for some halloweens in the past, but nothing too significant. i think it being made into a time where things could happen, etc. is partly why there is such fear for us with it and also having lived for several years with a lot of terror.

it's not really a favorite for us and is usually full of anxiety and what ifs, waiting for something to happen for some reason.
