Even I did not know of Halloween till I visited the US and the UK..I stayed in those two countries for almost 13 years. My daughters picked up this celebration with their school friends there. And when we moved to India, here in our apartment we have few expat families and even children with one parent from the US. So, the tradition continued. Now, my daughters are grown up and are not excited that much about costumes. But yes, the younger children in the apartment carry on with costumes and trick or treat.Here, we don't know what is Halloween so no costume bought. Yes, Diwali is approaching so will buy new clothes soon.
She is, we are both ARMY and was very happy to be able to go see Jin live this year@eLdavis . Even Halloween is not so well known here. With global influence through digital platforms, people have started knowing it. Enjoy your Halloween movies Have you selected some to watch?
@Shortie . Good that this year you can afford that costume for your daughter. She would be on cloud nine. She seems to be ARMY. Even my daughter is a big fan of BTS.
I haven't selected any yet though, but am sure i we definitely find some by next month before Halloween.@eLdavis . Even Halloween is not so well known here. With global influence through digital platforms, people have started knowing it. Enjoy your Halloween movies Have you selected some to watch?

We don't celebrate Halloween over here, so I won't be buying any but i we definitely be watching some horror movies though.@Bremaine @eLdavis . Halloween is just around the corner. And I assume that you two would have decided about the costume and maybe even bought one. @Bremaine . We all come in different shapes and sizes. We have to enjoy life, being heavy should not be a hindrance for you to not go in the costume that you like. I hope that the costume is ready.
Oh! I see. I read that in your earlier post but just missed it while replying. Here too, it is not well known. But in the last one decade, with global influence, younger generations have started picking it and now even the older ones are catching the infection. But yes, this is limited to big cities that have more of global influence. Small cities still don't know about it.We don't celebrate Halloween over here, so I won't be buying any but i we definitely be watching some horror movies though.




True, there are some people in my country who celebrate it, they even throw indoor parties but like you said, it is mainly limited to big cities.Oh! I see.

It's okay. Sorry about your loss. It's hard to overcome loss of parents. And such dates do bring memories and emotions. 29th October is my mom's birthday. She will be 70 this year.No. I don't 'do' Halloween. I have no problem with anyone else doing it but I don't see the point. Also it is too close to the date my mother died. She died on the 29th.
You can always remember her on her birthday in a very fond way. If you don't mind sharing, when and how did she pass away?Thank you, Arunima. My mother would have been 90.
