Actually, the europeans celebrating Halloween should be partying as well..
You're thinking about the stuff coming up approximately a week later.
I don't know what that's called in English but it isn't the exact same thing.
Halloween means "All Hallows Eve" and is a celebration of several old saints whilst
what You mean is in memory of ALL dead, realatives and such.
Hope I managed to enlighten a little and.. happy Halloween everyone!
