Is in a few short weeks. Halloween is probably one of my favourite holidays. Best season, candy, and dressing up. So! what are your plans? What are you dressing up as? Funny Costume ideas? etc I'm going as Smurfette. I'm trying to track down some really good blue body paint, wear a white dress, white hat. I'm good to go. |

Last year I went trick or treating as Ash from the Evil Dead series. The parents all bitched about me and my friends trick-or-treating except for one guy who recognized my costume and dumped his whole bowl in my pillowcase. I was so proud of my costume last year. I had every single detail copied straight from the second film. I want to buy a giant lion costume this year but I can't afford it. |

I think just buying a cow's head from a butcher's shop and walking around the streets carrying it and yelling at people would be good enough. You don't even need to dress up. |

You should put it on a pike and corpse-paint it up. Then get a friend with a boombox to blare some black metal behind you. |

Yes, we do. I don't really know what I'll be doing on Halloween, though. A few days ago, I went to a Halloween Pub Crawl... without a costume (since I didn't have any good ideas for one!). Either I'll be doing something similar on Halloween or I'll just be passing out candy. |

Well, Halloween isn't celebrated here, but metalheads do celebrate it... kinda. On Halloween there is usually the greatest metal party in region, Fuck Yeah! and lots of metalheads have corpsepaint then. So this year I had a bet. It's to wear 24 hrs corpsepaint with inverted cross on forehead. Any good advices how to make one??? |

Halloween is unknown in Switzerland. What we do have though, is the "Holiday of the Dead". |

nay... most people in denmark considere Halloween an american tradition with no relevance to our country. Stores do try to commercialize the tradition by selling halloween stuff, but nobody cares. I don't get the point with halloween anyway, why exactly is Halloween all about "spookiness" and pumpkins?!?! Besides, we have our own day, somewhat similar, where children and young people dress up in all sorts of outfits, be it as ghosts, as cowboys, as oilets etc. And instead of candy we give money when children ring the doorbell, but only if we feel generous. Young people such as myself only do it occasionly if there's a party, though - we don't go to work looking like crap unless we are working with children. To americans this tradition prob. makes no sense either, and I too don't understand the purpose of it. Some pagan tradition that lost it's meaning, I guess. |

lolloween. no one cared about that until a few years ago, it just happened out of nowhere. there's no trick or treating as far as i know, though (most people here live in apartments and not houses), it's mostly themed parties and stuff. |

It's a dead tradition in this podunk town. Fear of all the molesters and murderers that are constantly roaming the vicious streets killed it. ![]() I really hate this place. |

We celebrate Día De Muertos or Hanal Pixán (Feast for the Dead) on towns and cities where Mayan culture is more present, and it goes from october 31 to november 2nd, Hanal Pixán is a special event when we remember our friends and relatives that passed away, some people prepares altars with food because it is said that on those days the dead has "Permission" to visit earth and eat the food that their loved ones prepared for them, to great thing about that is that we the living get to eat some special food too like the "Pib" wich is more or less a like a huge buried tamale, man i love eating Pib. Being so close to the USA we do have some halloween parties where people wear costumes and all that stuff but no one actually trick or treat here. |
