I lived in PA for grad school and they did it on a different day sometimes, they even scheduled rain dates for inclement weather. It’s not unheard of.

Also went to school for a time in PA and they always did weekend before too in south central area. Kind of wonder if that’s a strictly PA thing because CT is always the 31st.

When I lived in Ohio it was similar. They specifically called that night beggar's night, rather than Halloween.

Yup! That's where I'm from! Most Halloween stuff occurred on the weekend and not necessarily on the actual date.

Another former PA peep & my town had a scheduled, official trick-or-treat the Saturday before Halloween. No rain date though
