Halloween is my favorite holiday.
You can keep your Thanksgiving and your Easter and your Christmas.
I like it to be spooky, fun, and a little bit unpredictable.
And I think a lot of my fellow Americans are in my corner!
But the reality is that a lot of people who don’t live in the U.S. think that our Halloween traditions are a little bit over the top. And crazy. And they have some questions.
Take a look…
Now that is a great idea!
Not yet, unfortunately…

Really, really trusting people do this.
Bless their hearts…
Do Americans on #Halloween really just leave a bowl of sweets on their doorstep and hope for the best?

You can NEVER take it too seriously.
Just trust me on this one…
Is it just me or do Americans take Halloween way too seriously? Like this is over-the-top levels of engagement.

Well, it depends on who you talk to…
Those seeds, though…
out of curiosity, do Americans actually eat pumpkins or they just grow them for halloween? 🤔

It’s just the way it goes.
Ain’t no shame in our game!
Why do Americans get photoshoots of themselves hugging pumpkins every autumn y'all are a strange group

It’s much more intense than the movies.
You better believe it!
