I do the same. Except I dress as a stark black and white Harlequin, and hand out treats with some good friends at either our house or theirs. My costume, and the make-up just really freaks the kids out. I think its the clown thing, and it is so very real. Every year my friends dress as grotesque ghouls or witches and the kids are fine with that, it's my Harlequin that makes them cry.
