Devil's Night

Devil's Night, or Hell Night, is a name associated with October 30, the night before Halloween. It is related to the "Mischief night" practiced in other parts of the United States and the world, but is chiefly associated with the serious vandalism and arson seen in Detroit, Michigan from the 1970s to the 1990s, finally prompting the "Angel's Night" community response.

Famous quotes containing the words devil and/or night:

    Thus may we gather honey from the weed
    And make a moral of the devil himself.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Whence all good things have perished utterly,
    And well I know my soul in Hell must lie
    If I this night before God’s throne should stand.
