RainbowMau 291 October 30, 2014 Share October 30, 2014 (edited) I know that most of you are from the US so you'll answer will obviously yes, but for the rest of you, how will that day be? Here in Costa Rica we used to celebrate it in early 90's, but from mid 90's to late-2000's it was forbidden because the catholics said it was satanic, it was something that it was shown through schools and the commercial boom that Halloween brought was suddenly killed. Now thankfully it's slowly coming back to normal and Halloween celebrations are back, but not as common as then and there's a lot of people who hate it because they say we're copying foreign traditions (yeah, we celebrate Christmas just as if Jesus was born in Guanacaste or San Jose) Edited October 30, 2014 by RainbowMau 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERFOX5 387 October 30, 2014 Share October 30, 2014 (edited) Oh yes, I try to celebrate these holidays to their fullest... sometimes. I love the spooky, scary atmosphere that Halloween brings every year. I just finished carving Pumpkins yesterday, two of them. One is Beetlejuice and the other is the GhostBusters logo! I also try to watch as many nostalgic scary tv shows on TV/YouTube as I can.

Odyssey 5,715 October 30, 2014 Share October 30, 2014 Sort of? Australia tends to follow whatever the US is celebrating, but the way Australia celebrates Halloween is rather quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DubWolf 17,224 October 31, 2014 Share October 31, 2014 Yes we do (US). I can understand why Catholics (I'm a catholic) would think Halloween is... Well sArabic, but in reality, if you simplify Halloween into wearing costumes and going door to door asking for candy, I see no problem .

Kamii 595 October 31, 2014 Share October 31, 2014 (Portugal)No, not really... Every single year I can see like... 1 or 2 children with a witch hat and that's about it... Today for example, I'm back from school right now... All I saw was just that. Also, when it comes to Trick or Treating, I have a neighbor who disguised herself, asked for treats, we didn't give them to her and she threw flour, eggs and water to our door... If no one celebrates it, why the hell did she "trick" us anyway?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RainbowMau 291 October 31, 2014 Author Share October 31, 2014 In the UK in general, yep it's celebrated (not as feverishly as in the US) I guess you celebrate it in the traditional way since it's a Celtic tradition, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainbow Eclipse 3,927 October 31, 2014 Share October 31, 2014 Yeah, usually, where I reside in the UK. But I'm at my dad's place as I type this, where I've never spent a Halloween. I've only seen one house with decorations, which is fraying my nerves slightly. I still have a few hours before I head out.

Pripyat Pony 2,608 October 31, 2014 Share October 31, 2014 Yes. Adults - A great excuse to get dressed up, party all night and get drunk. Kids - Trick or treat, plus tea parties. Back when I was a kid, I used to go trick or treating with my brothers. We were allowed to go out by ourselves, ie not accompanied by parents, as long as we stuck together and didn't go outside a certain radius. We used to get sackfuls of sweets but our parents wouldn't let us eat them all at once! XD We'd also have hotdogs and spooky cake for tea before setting out, and make a Halloween themed collage during the week; half term was always the week before Halloween. Tricks would consist of silly string, cuz our parents wouldn't let us take flour or eggs, tho we did use to smuggle a bag of flour out for a particularly cranky git who never gave to trick or treaters and used to shout abuse at them. XD We'd flour his car windscreen and "decorate" the tree in his front garden with silly string. We also once stole a milk bottle off the doorstep of a woman who gave us fruit.

Castle_Cross 331 November 1, 2014 Share November 1, 2014 Mexico, yes we do, There aren't so much decorations, but you can see the groups of kids and teens asking for candy, and some of them launching eggs with paint at the windows xD, also there are marathons of horror movies and Halloween parodies in almost every channel xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacks 28 November 1, 2014 Share November 1, 2014 Not so much in Aus. well, certainly nowhere near as much as in US. Got a couple families who yell at kids who trick or treat, cuz it's "pagan." Whoopdeedoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UserNotFound 964 November 1, 2014 Share November 1, 2014 Well yeah people here in the UK celebrate it... But I don't and I refuse to... I loathe Halloween and all the spooky atmosphere it brings... I'm sorry but that's my opinion . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarfaceOne 263 November 1, 2014 Share November 1, 2014 Not really, my mum is not a huge fan of Halloween and in my country It is not as big as it is in America. I wish it was big as halloween.

Yoshi89 5,293 November 8, 2014 Share November 8, 2014 Our neighborhood still gets their fair share of trick or treaters. They generally stop by the time night falls. 1 ˙ʎpoqʎuɐ ƃuᴉlooɟ ʇou ǝɹ,noʎ 'sᴉɥʇ pɐǝɹ uɐɔ noʎ ɟI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
