As a kid, we all knew the best houses to stop by on Halloween. You know the ones, the houses that were decked out with over-the-top decorations, flashing lights, and loads upon loads of the best candy. We’re not talking about the suckers that you get from the doctor's office or the fruit-flavored tootsie rolls—although they’re classics for a reason. We mean the full-size—even super-sized—chocolate candy bars that kids talk about in hushed, reverent whispers. It’s these houses, with the top-of-the-line candy, that draw the envy of their closest neighbors.
