Do you have any special plans for Halloween? Have you do anything fun or interesting this year at a Halloween party or event?
Here in the states, the stores depend on Halloween to sell a lot of merchandise. There are parties, costume contests, what amounts to theatre in front of (and inside, sometimes) the homes of people as they try to scare or entertain neighbors and strangers with things ranging from silly to sexy, spooky to gory. In some places, kids (and often parents) in costumes go from door to door collecting candy or other treats.
Many amusement parks, ranging from small to the largest, do special entertainment in the weeks leading up to Halloween, and this is a favorite time of the year for movie studios to release horror movies, and for broadcasters to show ones from years past.
For some, there are religious or spiritual aspects to the day, and it might be called by other names.
Some interesting things can happen when people are having fun at costume parties, or cuddled up together watching scary movies.
So, as always, feel free to comment or share your stories.

Where I live (the balkans) there is barely any mention of it, and even then it's symbolic to the point where it doesn't make any difference for anyone whatsoever. Every day's the same, dull old gray that's worsened by those depressing and miserable commieblocks that dot the landscape. Not to mention the people; just judging by their asinine facial expressions will make you think that they've had lemons for breakfast, and a one hour ride on a bus would make even the most cheery and optimistic person consider suicide as a viable option.
