Uh, no. I think it means "give me some candy, or I'll vandalize something." There's no "spirits" involved. Just little children (who seldom vandalize) and older reprobates (who vandalize regardless).

Are you sure that there are no spirits involved in putting the idea "give me some candy, or I'll vandalize something" in child's head? Does not look much better than Diversity Celebration.
