The night from the 31st of October to the 1st of November is sooooo special: in the USA and other countries, most kids are transformed into scary creatures (some of them because they dress up as such, some of them because of the monstrous amount of candy they eat...or both!), most teachers find cool handcrafts to do in their classes year after year (thanks Internet!), most houses are full of cobwebs (more than ever!) and carved pumpkins...
Is it your case? Are you a classical Halloween freak? Or maybe you have got a special family tradition on Halloween? Tell us about it!
Moreover, there are other cultures which consider that night, the day after it or even the whole week to be magical in some way.
There is for instance the Mexican/Mesoamerican Día de Muertos! Do you celebrate this colorful festivity filled with love and respect for those who are physically not among us anymore?
We'd love to know more about what this night means to you!

Loving this initiative!
I'll go ahead and start:
I don't have big plans honestly! This Halloween I'll spend it in Berlin and it's so freezing cold (-3 degrees already
) that I will just watch scary movies home and eat more chocolate than I probably should

Awesome idea @Lola_Pop 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻We have a tradition of trick or treating with a college buddy who has two kids who go to the same elementary school as my kiddos. We get together, eat, dress up and then pull a red radio flyer wagon along with all the supplies for the night including “juice” for the parents 😉🤣 and extra Halloween 🎃 bags for all the kids loot.Its a large neighborhood and the families are so generous the kid’s usually fill up a bag or two each. Usually by the end of the night I’m hauling the candy 🍭 loot, a kid or two and if necessary one of the parents who had to much juice, home 😂
Happy Halloween 👻 King Family 🤗 🧡 🤗

Hi @Lola_Pop
I am so ashamed to say something because I have no experience about Halloween.😂
Halloween celebration in India is on the rise, even though Halloween is not that popular as compared to other festivals in the country. Next year I hope I can share some experiences.😊Trick or treat, I think you’re sweet on Halloween and always. May it be dreadfully creepy and scary and a whole lot of fun. Happy Halloween to all.🎭

I will probably drink wine, read a book and listen to my favorite music. Alone, of course 🤗4

Hello @Sukanta_Biswas !
There's nothing to be ashamed of, hehe! My experience about Halloween is all because of my son; he and his friends celebrate Halloween "the American way"- trick or treat, pumpkins, etc., In Spain Halloween is also on the rise, but not widely spread yet.
In Catalonia, we eat chestnuts and a pastry called "panellets". It's usually a night to be with your family, so most children prefer Halloween now! They say it's way more fun!
Maybe you can tell us more about Diwali instead?

Thank you @Lola_Pop
Diwali is one of the most significant festivals in India. It is celebrated across the length and breadth of the nation with much fanfare and enthusiasm. Known as the "Festival of Lights", Diwali is a 5-day celebration, wherein friends and families get together, light 'Diyas' or earthen lamps in their houses, feast on sweet delicacies, exchange gifts, play games and burn crackers. The festival is celebrated on 'Amavasya' or no moon night and heralds the dawn of a New Year, according to the Hindu calendar. It is a harbinger of new beginnings as it is believed that Goddess Lakshmi pays a visit to the houses of devotees in the middle of the dark night, and blesses them with wealth and happiness. It is called the festival of lights because it symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, good over evil and hope over despair.
Indians love to return to their homeland on Diwali. Through this festival, good relations with each other develop.
