Happy Halloween!!

LIKE many children growing up in the 80’s the movies featuring Halloween trick or treating always made me wish we had the same custom in Australia….anything for fancy dress and lollies.

I’ve heard the arguments that it is an American tradition that doesn’t belong here and the simple and the simple answer to that is bah-humbug, let the kids have some fun.

And the origins of Halloween can be found in the Celtic culture: see video below.

If you are Halloween friendly put a decoration out the front and post your street on our Facebook page thread with this article, to help trick or treaters find where the lollies are at!

Happy Halloween!
