One Halloween night, two African American children, who are brother and sister, put on their costumes and go out of the house for some trick or treat. At the first house they stop by, the boy rings the doorbell. After a few minutes, an old white woman opens the door and asks, “And who might you two be?”

“We’re Hansel and Gretel!” says the boy.

“But you can’t be Hansel and Gretel. They’re white!” insists the old woman who promptly shuts the door on them. So the two siblings go back to the house and change their costumes. They return to the first house and ring the doorbell.

When the same old woman opens the door, she asks, “And who might you two be?”

“We’re Romeo and Juliet!” says the girl.

“That can’t be. Romeo and Juliet are both white!” With that said, the old woman closes the door.

Though disappointed, the two siblings return home but this time they go out without any clothes on. They head straight for the first house and ring the door again.
This time, the same old woman is so surprised to see them naked that she blurts out, “What are you two this time? Adam and Eve?”

“No,” the boy answers, “Hershey bars. One with nuts, the other without.”
