The Basics

Trick or Treat is an exchange in the style of exchanges like Yuletide or Chocolate Box. It is inspired by a real world holiday, but you do not need to celebrate Halloween to participate in this exchange.

Each participant will receive at least one gift. The gift will be a trick or a treat, and gift minimums are 300 words for fic or a nice sketch for art. A trick should be more horror, occult, supernatural, or scary. A treat should be more sweet, sexy, or fluffy. These are a bit vague to give the writer/artist room for how they interpret trick or treat.

Participants must be 18 years or older.

It's time for another Trick or Treat exchange! A new Pumpkin King has picked up the crown, with gratitude to the noble gourds who have served before. The FAQ has some slight changes for the spooky new reign; credit for the original remains with [personal profile] sirvalkyrie.

Trick or Treat comes again this year, now with a new mod. The rules remain unchanged, and so does the FAQ written by Pumpkin King I, aside from minor cosmetic differences to account for it being a new round. Credit goes to [personal profile] sirvalkyrie for it.
