For the "trick" part of Trick or Treat, people used to do things like use a bar of soap to mark up windows. Doing more than that these days would be considered to be vandalism and unacceptable.
Since most people give candy, fruit, or charitable donations when asked for a treat, there really is no acceptable reason to trick these days.
