The most we get is Halloween-themed episodes of US TV shows shown on Telly, a scary movie or two on telly & at the movies (ghost ship is one that comes to mind) and a sparse scattering of Trick-Or-Treaters (very rare).

There was a group that had A (one) Maze at the old showgrounds for a couple of years, but that has disappeared. I haven't seen or heard of any haunts, amateur or professional.

I do get my satisfaction cooking hallowen fare such as kitty litter cake & witches fingers for work, but that's about it. Ny best friend (the neutralised Aussie who hails from Anaheim) has a birthday right on Halloween, so we sometimes have a scary birthday party for him. that's where I made my eyeball punch (and first did the cat-poop cake).

They don't look like a lot of people's worst nightmares to me..... (Right, Kevy, Nirvanaman, Bornieo, etc, etc, etc)
