The decorations are incredible and the turnout is extreme. The year when we were there, we had people who came from halfway across the country for Mountain View Halloween. We even had people come from Berkeley and if you know about Berkeley and costumes, that is incredible. We would invite you to help hand out treats at our house, but our current neighborhood is pretty boring in that regard. Whereas in Mountain View, we gave out 20 kilos of goo in two hours while limiting it to no more than 50 g per person, in our current location, we had trouble giving away a single kilo of candy.
