HALLOWEEN SAFETY TIPS

for

DANGER-FREE  

Trick-or-Treating!

• If someone not immediately recognizable approaches you, walk (don’t run) to your house and call the police. 

• Do not wear a mask. It may obstruct your vision, and you could be mistaken for a robber or criminal of some type.

• Never go out after dark.

• Keep your distance from stray dogs, wild beasts or escaped zoo animals.

• Don’t approach the property of persons not known to you personally for at least ten years.

• Avoid unusual costumes that could identify you as a trick-or-treater to lurking pedophiles.

• Carry pepper spray, chemical mace, or a handheld tasers. Don’t carry guns or knives without the recommendation of an adult known personally to you for a minimum of ten years.

• Never accept candy or foodstuffs of any kind.

• Don’t go out if you are under 18 years of age.

• Stay in your own home or yard.
