Thinking out loud again...How 'bout all of us American Pumpkinheads gather up our Halloween stuff and head over to the UK to offer our lovely cousins some reinforcements? Who's with me? 8)

Yes that'll be great! :D 'Home Haunting' is becoming more popular over here, but many need help!

Lots of kiddies go TOTing though, all dressed up & everything! TOTing is very popular over here. From what i've witnessed over the years anyway! :D

well its nearly Halloween in the UK, and some of the shops are already stocking up on goodies, and it seems to be a pretty decent spread this year (although nothing in comparison to the USA!).

My Halloween book is released on Monday the 10th, a first of its kind in the UK.

And also the first ever UK Home Haunts Award is launched this year too! Its all kicking off!

Cool! Thanks for the information Kris.

I'm from the UK too. I didn't know there is going to be a UK Home Haunts Award this year! That's awesome! :D

Good luck with your book! :)

Sounds like a fun idea. Maybe after I win the Lotto, I can book first class passage on the Queen Mary II, and rent a motorcycle and take a couple of 'haunted road trips' over there while I'm at it.

That would be awesome to do Mike. There's lots of old battle grounds over here that i'm sure are haunted, aswell as castles, old roads, forests etc.

I understand that Halloween in Austrailia is also getting bigger and bigger, and that ToT is very popular. The only difference is that in Austrailia, since it's in the Southern Hamisphere, October is a Spring month instead of a Fall month, so Halloween is a Spring holiday.
