HALLOWEEN TALE

So there was this family dressed up for Halloween, taking their young boy out for Trick or Treating. The dad was wearing oversized pumpkin glasses, the mom - rocking a witch's hat. Their little boy was dressed to the nines as a wizard. Only thing is, it's the day after Halloween. The family walked solemnly down the quaint, deserted Carroll Gardens block - the boy dragging his deflated Halloween sack - muttering to his sneakers in French which was indecipherable to me, save for the occasional utterance of the phrase "Trick or Treat" - for which there is no translation.
