Mischief Night

[ArmchairDiehard]

Always remember it as October 30th when I was a kid.

Apparently some people 'celebrate' it on November 4th.

Am I alone?

 

[Bottega Don]

Sorry, what?

 

[DarkSithLord]

Sorry, what?

Yes what?

Just googled it and it's a night for running about egging houses and generally being a nuisance.

We used to call that friday night.

 

[ArmchairDiehard]

Yep - I can't believe so many people haven't heard of it

 

[Abertawe]

Like Steve alluded to, that was generally what we got up to most nights back in the day.

 

[ArmchairDiehard]

Same here, but there was always THAT day when everyone got involved. I'm adamant it was the night before Halloween though.

 

[Abertawe]

Never heard of it in that case.

 

[TomPNE94]

Never heard of it.

 

[Luke Imp]

Never heard of it either.

No doubt in some areas of Lincoln, it's mischief night every night!

4th November. Night before bonfire night.

My mum and dad both reckon it's the night before Halloween

It's a northern+eastern thing.

Hazy memories of it, people taking the front gate off its hinges and the like when Inwas a nipper in Hull, but not a peep about it over t'hills in Macclesfield.

 

[r1ch1e]

We're civilised gents down here. Never heard of it

 

[RavenBish]

Hi, where do I find the 'neither, grow up you fucking bellends' option?

 

[Craig]

Next to the 'fuck off you boring c***' option.

 

[Megaclyde]

It's the night before halloween I thought. I just can't remember when halloween is currently

[White Army]

Always the 30th back home. Also known as mizzy night. Some shops stopped selling eggs on the day around ours.

 

[roversfan2001]

Never heard of it, but it's all year round pretty much

Was the 30th October in 1970s/80s Stockport. Dunno if youths still do it these days.
