I wish Denmark celebrated Halloween :-/ ... It's slowly picking up though. Every year, the stores sell more and more Halloween stuff.

But compared to USA, this is practically nothing. People don't really go out to trick or treat, and from what I read, in Denmark, trick or treating is incredibly lame. For example, this one lady was complaining about teenagers had come to her door, not even wearing any costumes, saying: "Treat or money".
Yea... They kinda butchered that thing, huh? Although we do have a direct translation for "trick or treat" people decided it should be "treat or money" instead.
But it may also have to do a lot with our older tradition, 'Fastelavn'. Which is essentially Halloween only in February and without all the scary crap(although, some people do dress up as scary stuff). It's more like princesses, kings, cats, mutant ninja turtles and stuff like that. During this holiday, people go out 'singing' for money. so yea.

Anyway, I really wish Halloween would be big in Denmark too. I find it a cute tradition, and I like horror stuff. And I carved pumpkins for the first time in my life with Chris, and that was fun.

Well, Chris was with my here in DK during Halloween(he just jumped on the plane back to USA today, and I already miss him :( ).
We watched a bunch of horror movies like Evil dead 1 and 2, drag me to hell(funny movie) and 'Trick'r treat". Trick'r Treat was actually quite enjoyable and fun, and I'd recommend it. It's a bunch of mini stories, but they are all connected in some ways. It has vampires, ghost/zombie thingies and everything that is basically Halloween.
It's based on some short cartoon of the same name.

Oh well... Not much happened as you see. Hopefully I can go to USA next time it's Halloween and experience it in its full glory =)

I'm a consumer whore.

Ah, yes. The ages old tradition of dressing up as Ninja Turtles.

That was way too much, I couldn't read it.

I do get the gist though, and I feel bad for you

What I usually do if it isn't Halloween, is call all my friends and just pull an improv everywhere style zombie walk.

Maybe you should try getting an education.

I tried that, but it didn't work.

I heard somewhere that Margaret Thatcher tried to promote Halloween in the UK in the hope that it would bleed some of the enthusiasm away from Guy Fawkes Night and its regular array of childhood cracker injuries.

She's certainly the scariest thing you'll see in a year.

She's like a shit that won't flush. Every time you think she's going to die, the evil little cow survives.

This Halloween I dropped acid in the woods for my friends' birthday and had one of the greatest nights I've had in a while

god bless the holidays

and what's wrong with candy and costumes! Anti-commercialism, pshaw!

Urgh, that's the real tradition isn't it.
