Halloween















For my first American Halloween, I experienced proper Trick or Treat-ing, with some small people in costumes. It's less about teenagers out for some spare cash here and more about children and sweets (or, rather, 'candy'). Households actually enjoy the process, stocking up on goodies and leaving their front light on to invite people to call. Participants carry pumpkin-shaped containers, or goody bags and everyone wishes each other a 'Happy Halloween'.

Some people really go to town on decorating their houses too - they vary from cobweb-draped bushes to a veritable mini movie set!
