TRIVIA BITS - HALLOWEEN
Halloween was brought to North America by immigrants from Europe who would celebrate the harvest around a bonfire, share ghost stories, sing, dance and tell fortunes.
Halloween was originally a Celtic holiday celebrated on October 31.
Samhainophobia is an intense fear of Halloween.
36.1 million is the estimated number of potential trick-or-treaters in 2006 — children 5 to 13 — across the United States, down 45,000 from 2005. Of course, many other children — older than 13, and younger than 5 — also go trick-or-treating.
