A question as we head into fall: why do you think Americans like Halloween so much? 🎃

Looking for perspectives from people in the US, and from people outside the US

I have my theories but I'm curious to know what others think!

#Halloween

@lauraehall We love it here. But a bunch of stores want to push Christmas way too fucking early.
@Ertain Oh, it doesn't help with that, then? I hate seeing Christmas stuff in stores in August (!) here in Germany, but I always thought that it would come out after Halloween for you guys at least...

@Olooriel @Ertain the xmas stuff typically doesn't come out in full force until Nov 1 but it's there on the periphery

in recent years though the Halloween stuff has been coming earlier and earlier. The local dollar store started putting out Halloween in late July!
