Have any of you heard of getting Boo-ed? It's a neighborhood Halloween game, kind of like ding dong ditch but fun and positive!! You ring someones door and run away leaving the BOO poem, a We've been Boo-ed sign and a little treat. You can find printable versions of all the signs and stuff here. (http://organizedchristmas.com/youve-been-booed) The person you Boo then Boo's two other people and once you've been Boo-ed you put up the sign in your window saying you've already been Boo-ed.

We just moved into a new neighborhood and all of our neighbors are SUPER nice so I think I'll start the game on our block!!

I've been doing this for years.

Then last year, I saw people were starting to sell pre-made ones! I was so surprised. But that's also lame. I like making my own.

I had never heard of it before. Some of the hygenists at the dentist office were talking about it yesterday and I thought it sounded super fun so I'm going to do it tonight!!

This sounds much healthier than a local game here called you've just been Poo-ed where you knock on a door, leave a POO poem, a We've been Poo-ed sign and a chocolate whale.

I made all my Boo Baskets Friday night and Boo-ed everyone Saturday!! SO much fun!! I made vegan cookies and left a little note in the buckets to the parents so they would know the baked treats were from me. I also went to the dollar store and picked up crayons, glo necklaces, pumpkin shaped bottles of nail polish, jewelry making kits and dum-dum ghosts!! The Booing is spreading around the neighborhood already!! Love it!! Peace & Love!!

I've never heard of this before this year. I read about it on another forum a few days ago. I think people would think we were strange if we did this...lol

Yeah it seems like a lot of stores are carrying "Boo" Bags. There are a lot of sites out there were you can print the Ghost and Poem for free like the one at www.beenbooed.com - They have one where kids can color to make it look more home made.




This year we got booed twice because I didn't get the ghost on the door fast enough!

I've heard of this.
The teachers in my highschool did this every year.
It's really cute.

People around this neighborhood do it every year, but I tend to keep to myself.
