  For folks staying home to hand out candy to the little monsters tonight, you 
might want to take the opportunity to do the Bernie Sanden idea of showing off 
a few sky tricks (or is it treats?) from a scope strategically placed in view 
of the treats (or tricks) you're handing out.

  The heart of that monster scorpion is very near to the early setting crescent

  From Joe Orman's Sky Events:

  October 31 (evening): Venus 5 degrees above crescent Moon, low in SW after 
sunset. Moon 7 degrees to left of Venus on

  November 1.
