It’s hard to believe that on one day out of the year people in various countries like America flip social standards on their head.
On Halloween it is completely acceptable and encouraged to:
- Take candy from people you don’t know. Especially if you’re a child.
- Embrace demons, witches, and other taboos related to concepts of evil/death.
- Pay for candy. Then give it all out for free.
- Open your door to strangers.
- Show as much skin as you care to. Have less people judge.
- Watch movies and events that may give you a heart attack.
