Just in time for Halloween.
We do here in the UK (albeit we're no longer part of Europe as such).In Europe we don't officially celebrate Halloween, in several European countries there is a festivity in mid-November where children go door-to-door, with lanterns and sometimes dressed as a fairy or angel, to sing songs and then get candy, so also a kind of trick or treat. Pumpkins, witches, etc. are unknown. This festivity is celebrated in certain Dutch provinces and the Dutch Antilles, we call it Sint Maarten, the origin seems to be quite different from Halloween.
Like most things, I'm sure we didn't invent it ... just commercialized it. That said, kids and adults alike enjoy Halloween. Who doesn't like getting into a costume and pretending to be someone or something else for a few hours?In Europe we don't officially celebrate Halloween, in several European countries there is a festivity in mid-November where children go door-to-door, with lanterns and sometimes dressed as a fairy or angel, to sing songs and then get candy, so also a kind of trick or treat.

I know it's pretty weird, but when on a holiday I want to visit cementaries.
