Halloween is near and we are gearing up for a big night of trick-or-treaters. It's the one time of year when all the neighborhood ghosts and ghouls parade around the neighborhood looking for sweet treats and mischief. But, some neighborhoods seem to have more holiday cheer than the rest.

I take things a little too seriously when it comes to trick-or-treating. I like to bust out a map and plan our attack on the neighborhood. I feel that if I am claiming a "dad tax" on the candy collected, then we better get the most out of our efforts. Thankfully there is a handy tool online that can help you get a better idea of which neighborhoods have the most Halloween holiday spirit.

According to Instacart

For the first time ever, we’re introducing a tool that lets you enter your zip code to discover your area’s Scare Score. This score, determined by analyzing candy, costume, and decor purchases via Instacart, rates your community’s Halloween spirit — and shows the top candies in your zip code, so you know which treats your neighbors are most likely going to be handing out! You can also use it to pinpoint the places in your city with the highest Scare Scores — aka the ultimate trick-or-treating destination.

Now you can plan your assault on the neighborhoods with even more attention to detail. Just plug in your zip code and the map will show you the parts of town that have the most Halloween decorations, costumes, and candy.
