  1. I love the fall time. The color changes. The little squirrels hunting for nuts. It's just so great to watch!

  2. We don't really celebrate Halloween the way Americans or Europeans do. We don't have that here in our country. It's on October 31st right? We don't do much stuff during that day, aside from preparation for All Soul's Day. Some of the grown-ups are busy tidying up the graves of our dead relatives because every November 1st, we visit them. We spend the whole night at the cemetery up until morning. It's an annual thing. We eat there and chat, anything to keep us busy. We pray for the souls of our dead relatives as weel. It's kinda like a reunion thing between families and relatives , also.

  3. My favourite thing about Halloween is quite simple. I just love seeing the Jack-O-Lantern's lit up in everybodies windows. Here in the UK, Halloween isn't celebrated as much but the one thing that is the most common is the carving of pumpkins for decorations :)

  4. This year my favorite thing about Halloween is the Spooktacular hops and giveaways with lots of spooky good books :) otherwise it has to be all the litter miniature candies you allegedly get for the kids that if you eat just one does not make you feel you are being too bad LOL Thanks for the fun and lovely giveaway opportunity.

  13. The best thing about Halloween has to be a toss up between getting dressed up and scaring people. I guess you can do both together, though :)

    Thanks for the giveaway :)

  17. What I love about Halloween it's the history behind it. How it evolved into what it is now. I also love scary pumpkins and giving sweets to the kids :) Thank you for this giveaway! There are some amazing books here!

  18. My favorite thing about Halloween is all the scary movies on TV. This year on AMC FEAR FEST, zombies are popular. I've already watched SURVIVAL OF THE DEAD, DIARY OF THE DEAD, and FLIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. Also, DRACULA 2000 and THE WALKING DEAD (love this show). So it's been a fabulous Halloween already, and its not even here yet! Thanks for the giveaway!

  20. We don't celebrate Halloween like in the US and I personally don't have a favorite part of it. I would enjoy the candy if we had that tradition tho...

    ReplyDelete
  21. My favorite thing about Halloween is the atmosphere surrounding it. Black cats, carved pumpkins, full moons, scary stories, candy corn. Yes, it's all so cliched, but I still love it all. Some think Halloween is just a silly tradition and other are hardcore about it. I'm somewhere in the middle.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Thanks for the contest! Man, so many great books to chose from!

    I think my favorite part about Halloween are just the memories associated with it. My hubby and I started dating around this time of year and before we were married used to go to all the haunted houses we could. But, among other things, for me it's a time to step outside and do things I normally wouldn't do. To relax, be a little silly and have fun.

  23. Thanks a lot for the contest, and for making it international!!

    I just love the whole feeling of Halloween! Here in Brazil Halloween is (freakin' unfortunately) not celebrated, but I tend to be on the mood for more creepiness around Halloween!! So I just love that whole creepy factor!
