Dressing UpRotating Disembodied Head asks: Have you spent 10,000 man hours recreating a costume of a minor character from Star Trek to wear at conventions or merely turned up at a party buck-naked and sporting a mouthful of custard which you spit out on demand and declare yourself to be a zit? Tales of the old dressing up box, fancy dress parties and stealing panties off next door's line. Said too much.

You never saw ET?They went out trick or treating, and that was in the 70's.

That was in America though. The suggestion was that trick or treating has only been taken up widely in other countries thanks to the pervasive nature of American media.
However it's not true to say that because kids hadn't been knocking on your door before the 90s that halloween wasn't an event before then. All that tells you is that trick or treating wasn't the way it was celebrated.

E.T. was early 80's But as explained way above it's not a new thing... As with all American "traditions" they stem from older traditions. Bleating about Holloween as a whole rather than it's commercialisation is dumb... I wonder if ROF refuses to have a Christmas tree?
