Mischief night, a tradition in northern England, Scotland, Ireland and the United States, is a night on the calendar when the custom is for preteens and teenagers to take a degree of license to play pranks and do mischief to their neighbors.
Here are suggestions for NY-style mischief. Kvetchette must insist that readers not try these at home, unless under adult supervision.
- T.p. the doorman
- Drop eggs from your balcony or roof - try to drop them so they land in the shape of a pumpkin to make it more halloweeny and less illegal
- Press the buzzer to pretty much everyone in your building and then stand aside to hear them all ask who it is; when they all eventually stop asking - press again
- Press all the buttons in the elevator, then jump out at the first floor - people hate that
- T.p. the neighbor's yappy dog (please don't do this to my yappy dog)
- Drop orange food coloring into the washers at the laundromat - to create fun Halloween-themed clothes
