This is a guess on my part, but I am guessing in the 1950's. The reason I say this that it wasn't until the 1950's that Halloween became a child's holiday and started to "trick or treat". Until then, it was an adult party night.

Why is prostitution referred to as turning tricks?

Today, the word trick--when used as slang or as a label--is known as a derogatory term for women. Usually used by trannys, calling a female a trick can imply that she is a whore.However, trick hasn't always had this sexual meaning behind it. First introduced into the English language in 1412, the word "trick" was used to describe any act that was mischievous or devious. It didn't necessarily have to be an act sexual in nature. For example, think of the common Halloween saying, "Trick or treat." In 1915, the word "trick" was first used to refer to a child prostitute. This lead to the phrase "turning and turning kids," which is used to describe the act of prostitution.

Why trick or treat at halloween?

You say Trick or treat because it is a tradition on Halloween. It is a challenge to the candy giver-- give candy or I'll do a trick on you. Over time, the idea of playing a trick was lost and forgotten... even though we still use the saying, "Trick! or Treat!"
