Soon, ghosts and ghouls will overtake your neighborhood.  While many just want treats, some mischievous Halloween celebrators enjoy pranks.

The Halloween Spending Survey, conducted by the National Retail Federation (NRF), found that 158 million people in the U.S. plan on participating in some way. For example, 70 percent of 18- to 24-year-olds surveyed said they plan to wear a costume this year.

But costumes, parties, pumpkins and haunted houses won't be enough for some of those folks. If your vehicle is damaged by a mischievous act or a careless accident, will you be covered?  Yes, if you have the right car insurance coverage for the event.
