Mischief Night, or Devil's Night, is the night before Halloween, where "tricks" or pranks are done by neighborhood children. Common pranks include egging neighbor's houses, smashing pumpkins and vandalizing homes with toilet paper.
In some instances the custom of mischief has lead to more serious crimes of vandalism. In 1984, over 800 fires were started in Detroit, Michigan, which caused the city to put a curfew in place on October 30th annually.Live Science: Devil's Night: The History of Pre-Halloween Pranks (October 28, 2008)
