Halloween/Trick or Treat

[Shar67]

Why dont English people understand what haloween is.
The Scots took it to America who twisted it a bit adding trick to it.

So why can't the country bordering Scotland get it.

Costumes - Scotland/America: Dress up as anything you like.

Costumes - England: Witch, Zombie, Ghost things along those lines

Treats - Scotland/America: sweets, fruit, nuts, toffee

Treats - England: crisps, money

Jack o lantern traditionally carved from swede
Pumkins ok these are easier to carve but unlike Americans does anybody in England make pie

 

[Chrisle68]

Bit like Why do Christian's celebrate Christmas Nothing to do with the birth of christ

 

[Shar67]

Well Christians invented their own feasts and festivals to get rid of pagan ones
