Iām interested in American- compared to the European Halloween tradition.
Halloween, in the UK, isnāt that big an event. I like to go to Glastonbury on the day to witness the night parade and Pagan celebrationā¦all very traditional for a recently made up occasion!
In Europe, people tend to dress up as scary characters: the Devil, demons, ghosts, witches & warlocks etc but in the USA people seem to just wear any type of fancy dress, cowboys, film characters, inanimate objects etc. Why are these deemed as āHalloween-themedā? How did these variations arise?
