Thanks Amy, you reminded me to stop by Clam's after dark.

Nothing like that, though I did know some "associates" that did that stuff.
My favorite Halloween prank was dressing up as a dummy (insert joke here). Here's the gag-I had created a life size dummy made out of old clothes, that I left on my front porch as a Halloween decoration. On Halloween evening, I sat in for the dummy with a bowl of candy in my arms. When kids came up and grabbed the candy, I grabbed them by the hand. With little kids, I just said "boo". It was fun and most kids got in the spirit. A few youger ones got frightened, but hey, that's what Halloween is about.

We had some neighborhood kids try and pull that prank the first Halloween we lived here...only they put the poo in little plastic bags, tied off the bag and didn't light it - just ding, dong, ditched us. I came out, saw the little bags, realized what they were and threw them away. Luckily, no fire. Our house would have gone up in smoke! Nonetheless, the idea is pretty funny!!
