As the children of New Canaan excitedly prepare for a night of innocent trick-or-treating fun, others may be getting ready to participate in a night of traditional mischief, adequately dubbed Mischief Night.

Students on October 30 take part in pranks such as toilet papering trees, egging houses, and ding dong ditching. According to junior Duke Repko, it is typical to have previously arranged plans for the night. “The plans are very well thought out, usually there’s a plan B, or maybe even a plan C in case something goes wrong,” he said.
