Cdub100 3,666 Posted October 31 Was this a thing in your cities? Here in Michigan, Devil's Night was the night before Halloween, when people would do bad things. I remember there being a lot of arson, especially in Detroit. You wouldn't want to leave your pumpkins out because there was a good chance someone would smash them. It was generally a night of evil debauchery. I remember the government rebranded it as Angels Night and large groups of people would patrol neighborhoods. Eventually, both faded from people's memories. So did you have a devil's night in your town? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fireballer 2,585 Posted October 31 I’ve talked to some old Detroit firemen over the years and they would tell stories about Devils Night being total chaos. Literally hundreds of fires all over the city. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
