Yes. There's a magical portal that opens every year, near halloween, when the boundries between dimensions are at thier thinnest. A nightmare realm, one remembered in the hearts and minds of every child- has been waiting in the darkness for it's chance to strike into the mortal realm, and take back the world they were banished from milennia ago.
The wizard who banished them was not without compassion, however, and knew that they could not be contained forever, so he created a portal that would allow the wicked ones to return, providing they are truly repentant.
The Evil forces on earth (Mainly the CoT) discovered this, and found a way to connect the primal power of the Earth to the other dimension, opening the portal from THIS side, to bring them back regardless of their intentions.
To open the portal, one merely has to exert some force, normally kinetic (Knocking) on a wooden surface during all hallow's eve.
Heroes of Paragon discovered this phenomina, and MAGI consultants were brought in to help fight back.
Research into the portals found that only one can be opened at any point in time, and 60 hero patrols were organized to continuously knock on doors (Which are common wooden surfaces) once every minute, keeping the portals under hero control, thwarting the thorns, and preserving the lives of innocent children trick-or-treating, as well as any adults who might bang thier extremities on coffee tables...
You can't spell Slaughter without laughter
All your gonna do is just farm behemoths anyways.

Win, my friend. Win. Imagination truly is a wonderful thing.
Alright, all you die-hard roleplayers, here's a challenge for you: think of a plausible RP reason why we would stand at a door, knock on it, kill what comes out, and then instead of investigating the apparent monster factory, or better yet,t he source, we stand at a door for a minute waiting to knock again.
In other words, trick or treating is fun, but RP kind of goes out the door. Any idea how to fix that?
