Modern Halloween's practitioners can be roughly divided into three different social groups:
- The most joyful ones are the children, who go door to door in their own or some more affluent neighborhood at night in lovely or strange dresses, demanding candies with some benign empty threats. In addition, schools often host some events during the day to entertain them as well as the parents.
- The most polite ones are the professionals, who attend Halloween lunch or dinner party hosted by the company. Because of the presence of all the bosses and boss' bosses, everyone behaves super professional, but maybe not as fun.
- The most profitable ones are the merchants, who get to sell various weird merchandize in the name of Halloween costumes or decorations. It is not uncommon for a regular people to have a number of unusual costumes dedicated to wear on Halloween only.
Well, here is a question for you, my dear MYSJer friend: Do you celebrate Halloween? And if yes, what did you do this year?
