Officially we don't even celebrate.. but some people do go trick or treating. It's not a big deal as it is in the US though..

In the UK, trick-or-treating is very common; certainly at least since I was a kid in the 90s. Possibly earlier. As for university students we'll usually have a halloween party as an excuse to dress up in silly costumes, get drunk and have a generally good time :)
Nightclubs in university towns take partciular advantage of the holiday to make special offers and hold halloween parties. |
Where Im from mostly everyone participates in some way . You either go trick or treating, go to a party or are having a party. Or you can stay home and give candy out. |
Or turn the lights off and tell ghost stories or watch movies!

It makes me sad to hear that teenagers have ruined Halloween in the UK. I have only been to London in Europe, and it was only for a week or so, but I was surprised at the disdain some teenagers had for society.
I watched a boy throw an empty cup of pop on the ground two feet from a garbage can. Where I live, that would be unthinkable. I live on the tail-end of the dateline, so Halloween just ended for us here. We had about 50 kids come to our house, all in costume and no trouble-makers. |
Yesterday marked the first time I had kids ring at my door at Halloween. I didn't expect it and had no candy available, so I just gave them 2€ each.
You Americans owe me money!:mad: |
