      Traditionally, its for the older kids who have aged out of halloween. Its unofficial and many places just dont tolerate it anymore but the older kids would go around smashing pumpkins and causing mayhem, maybe teepee a tree.

      We didnt participate but would bring in our pumpkins that night.

      Everywhere else it’s either called Mischief night or… nothing. But in some small parts of Western Massachusetts it’s called Pumpkin Night because… reasons!
