Halloween is a time for children to dress up in costumes and go trick-or-treating for candy. But for one Reddit user, their neighbor decided to steal candy from their kids as a ‘tax’ for taking them trick-or-treating. The situation took a surprising turn when the neighbor, who claimed to be vegan, was caught eating the candy and told that it contained animal products. The neighbor was horrified and left the park, giving the Reddit user dirty looks ever since. While the Reddit user’s husband thinks they should have kept quiet, the user thinks the neighbor deserved it for stealing candy from little kids. Read on for more details on this crazy Halloween story.
