Now I know that in many parts of Britain and Ireland Hallowe'en used to be known as 'Mischief Night', which meant that people were free to go around the village playing pranks and getting up to any kind of mischief without fear of being punished ( celebrated on the 30th of October ).
These days many people to my knowledge celebrate Samhain on October 31st, or on November 6th to 7th. And personally for the community on the west coast of Canada that I grew up with, it was highly common to celebrate Michief Night by yourself, taking time for a personal Samhain ritual, magic( if needed), and divinations. As well as a time to take care of your family and yourself before the coming new year. Then on the 31st we all used to gather for a communal ritual and celebration.

Now here is my question at hand;
" Do you perfer to celebrate on the day( or night ) of the sabbat or to celebrate a day before or after it? I would also love to know your reasoning why? "

I think thats a common way to go about it <:
I tend to celebrate in the early morning so I do not bother my room mates.
