I can't wait for Halloween I love it.
 
I won't even have kids knocking on my door this year 'cause I'm in an apartment.

But I'm still looking forward to halloween. Cheap candy in the grocery stores in November, hell yeah! :D
 
I grew out of Halloween when my Dad one year decided to disappoint me, for not showing up to take us trick or treat, but I was getting to be old enough to be honest, and the last time I ever set foot in our city it was completely empty, they had when up to some party or the rich parts of the city, and so hardly anyone showed up at our door either since I lived in apartment so yup.
 
I lived in Asia from birth to middle of grade four and spent the rest of my childhood adapting to a new culture. I missed out entirely on the whole Halloween craze, though I don't feel like it's anything too big. Not a major holiday by any standards. My family would buy a lot of candy in time most years and have no one come by; guess kids aren't interested nowadays either.

Ehhh, depends where you go. Halloween is more important than Christmas in some places in the USA.
 
I lived in college towns for most of my life since my father is an academic and all. Maybe that might have a part in it, who knows, though I can't imagine Halloween ever trumping Christmas. Where might you find such a place?

I believe it may have been in Michigan, some small town. I saw a TV special on it, apparantly they have multiple year round haunted houses, and a Halloween costume store that is so busy in October, they don't have to be open for business until the following October, they make that much money.
