Trick or treating has waned quite a bit, since the late 1970s / early 1980s...

Back then, most every kid (excepting those for religious reasons) went out on Halloween, regardless of the day it fell on, and went door to door late into the evening.

These days, many less kids go out - those who do often go with adult supervision, and trick or treating is typically limited to just an hour or so on a few streets (sometimes with the kids being driven for part of it!) and/or even more restricted, such as trick or treating at the local mall.

My guess is that in a decade or so, trick or treating, like many other things, will mostly be done virtually on the internet.
