It seems to be tradition in UK these days that if you don't have a house decorated with pumpkins and webs and witches etc they leave you alone. Not much point knocking on my door...I have no sweets! Some years ago a crowd of about 6/7 teenage lads came to our door demanding trick or treat. No costumes. They had just pulled up a bush in the neighbour's garden and he came up our drive behind them at which point they decided to leave. We phoned the police and the next day one of the boys was brought to our door by his father to apologise. Sadly only one of the 6!
I will have 5 young neighborhood children come to my door for Halloween. I know the children and have a small gift bag for each child. Happy Halloween.
We used to do quite a spectacular evening for the children in France, but they've all grown up now. Here I'm not really expecting any children to knock on our door.

Happy Halloween 🎃 to those that celebrate it. Here it's just 'pinch and a punch for the end of the month'
We don't celebrate it. Not interested.
A happy day to you as well.
Blessed Samhain, Cro. Tonight we honour our ancestors.
We went to a delicious and boozy dinner party last night. Our celebrations will end there!
I may raise a glass to mine, but no more.
We have locked the door, switched off the lights and shall sit very quietly....

That's the spirit. We shall do the same!
Sadly some take it as an excuse to behave as badly as they wish. They hope their disguises will make them unrecognisable, and therefore uncatchable.
For 1907 that is amazing footage. So many simple tricks.
It's good fun. The acting seems so bizarre and dated. Things have certainly changed.
If they did every frame, that is over 25,000 images to add color to.

That was really good, funny too, thanks.
A very strange bit of early film.
