Today redditgifts announces reddit Trick or Treat 2011 exchange, meetup day and costume contest!

Halloween is our absolute favorite holiday. Ever since we decided to add more exchanges we have wanted to do this! All it took was a bit of prodding from community members MisterTruth and Auyan.

We are so pleased to announce reddit Trick or Treat 2011!

How can you internet trick or treat, you ask? Well, it will be like going to the one best house on the block and getting your treat bag filled with candy and Halloween cheer (or Halloween tricks)! But what do I send? I have never done this before! Halloween is simple. Send candy, treats, decorations, Halloween related crafts, or spooky things! Or, you can send a trick! if your match says they would like a trick.

We recommend brushing up on your holiday skills by enjoying a viewing of It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown! Or perhaps some scary films such as, but not limited to, Frankenstein, Dracula (Bela Lugosi version, please), or the aptly themed slasher Halloween. You may want to heighten your Halloween experience by seeking out a haunted house or decrepit hospital to explore (redditgifts does not condone trespassing, of course). These things must be done at night to qualify as proper Halloween traditions.
