When are you too old to go trick or treating?

[Le-Vane]

I stopped a few years ago and I wish I hadn't :/ I'm 20 btw. It's not so much even the candy that's fun. It's getting to show off a costume. And with so few people that come to our house... Blah. At least I get to dress up for work, hehe

Literally never, trick or treating's for everyone, not just kids.

I'm 21 and I'm going treat or treating this year. Being short and having a baby face helps too. Haha

Middle School.

To me it'd only start being weird once someone is 40 or older, but then they still make sure that kids are safe so there's really no problem.

I stopped when I was 11. Super early, yeah, but when I learned that my older siblings got candy anyway as well as soda and fun stuff from my mom, I wanted to hang out with them instead. And either way, I really struggled with finding a costume I wanted to wear, as I wasn't into cosplay or really any fandoms until I was about 14. Personally, I think that there are more fun ways to celebrate Halloween than trick-or-treating as you get older, so I think around 13 is a good time to stop going and start doing other things like attending parties or going to haunted houses.

Imo there is no "too old" to go trick or treating.

I went trick-or-treating in college and a bunch of other students did too! I figure you're too old once you hit like 21.

I think that 14 is too old for actual trick or treating, but I do think that it is fine to dress up as anything and walk around. Just don't scare anyone unless they are your age and you know them.

No one is never 'too old' to Trick-or-Treat. But for some people, they would at least stop Trick-or-Treating like 13, 14, or 15 years old.

13 or so.

It's when you start getting that look from people of "aren't you too old for this"

I'm trick or treating until people outright refuse to give me candy because of my age. And once I have kids, I'll go with them.

i stopped when i was about 11. but i'm not sure about the limit to be honest. do whatever floats ur boat!

 

[Psydye]

I'm almost inspired to go again, thanks to people on here!

 

[nintendoanna]

i stopped going consecutively in sixth grade, seventh grade was my last year (im a freshman now) idk i'd rather have the candy go to kids and buy myself discount candy from walmart lol

Personally, I don't mind how old the trick or treaters are as long as they look like they are actually bothered! I've had a few teens that just shove on some lines of face paint and then put on normal clothes and bring a bin bag for candy, I never would be that person who would refuse to hand out candy so of course I gave them some but I just think Halloween is for fun, so if you are having fun and obviously put some effort into your costume I will have no problem with them going trick or treating! I suppose after 18 you start to look a little silly going out among little kids but as long as you aren't deliberately trying to take candy from innocent children and you are getting into the spirit then I will have no hesitation giving you some sweets ^^

I think that really any age is fine, although I do sometimes feel odd about taking all the good candy before the kids get there. I stopped trick-or-treating though just cuz of social anxiety, gonna probably have a retro horror movie night and drink hot apple cider instead.

 

[AbbyCrossing]

I don't really think you can be to old to trick or treat.

 

[Arjh]

I don't think you're too old and am happy enough with it but I hate it when teenagers come round not even dressed up and just say 'anything for Halloween' expecting you to give them money.
I think it's fun giving kids sweets and seeing them all dressed up

Maybe 14 or 15.
