That's interesting Jean. I had assumed Halloween was celebrated in the UK because of a an ex-neighbour of mine. Jane would now be in her mid-40's, and is an English-born Aussie citizen, who moved away from my street a couple of years ago. Anyhow, Jane always arranged a get-together on Halloween for the kids in the street, as that is what was done when she was a little girl in England. A bit of a party at her place first, with the kids in costume and games like bobbing for apples etc. Then she would herd the group of kids around several houses in the street - all prearranged, so you knew they were coming.
Hallowen hasn't been a traditional celebration in Australia, there is a little push for it these days but hasn't really caught on.
