I always find it interesting to read about the origination of the things celebrated in America. A lot of times we have changed the meaning or the reason. Halloween has always been one of those holidays we did not celebrate and after reading this article, I have a better understanding of why we did not. Beetle Juice looked great tho!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03781068682190486821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3043644059030617078.post-18269527657998549662012-11-12T21:45:39.947-08:002012-11-12T21:45:39.947-08:00Dr. Vitulli & Dr. Santoli

As many others have said, I was unaware that other countries celebrated Halloween. I love the picture of the two people dressed in costume. I saw a man at the Hard Rock a few weeks ago also dressed as Beetlejuice. He happened to be my favorite "character" of the night. <br /><br />HaleighAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3043644059030617078.post-34776466245284746112012-11-11T17:53:43.513-08:002012-11-11T17:53:43.513-08:00Hi Dr. Vitulli,

I was very impressed with all of the new information that I learned about Halloween from your link. I think that our holidays transform into different things as they get older. This is not necessarily a bad thing. It just makes it different. I think that the way we celebrate Halloween now is more creative then what it was meant to be. We were supposed to be honoring the dead and commemorating their memories. Now we just dress up to be something completely different and to be something we are not for a night. I think that as long as we know the meaning and the reason the holiday was made up there is no issue making it what we want it to be. I am glad that you had a great time! I would love to see more pictures if you have them.

I loved reading about the history of Halloween and never knew that Halloween started to mark the end of summer and the harvest, and the beginning of winter, and to commemorate the passing of the dead. I honestly never knew that others celebrated Halloween I thought it was a American thing but it is interesting to get different view on Halloween!

A lot of times we do things only because they are traditions and because our parents and there parents did them without even knowing what they truly mean..

Now it makes sense that some family don't celebrate it. Thank you for posting that link I found it so interesting. I had no idea that they used to carve turnips to be lanterns for the people who had died, now we carve pumpkins almost for the same reason we just don't know what we're doing. I always celebrate Halloween and carve pumpkins but I never really knew the meaning behind all of it.

I was wondering if they have a special holiday candy like our candy corn or if thy really say trick or treat at someone's door or another phrase? Glad you and Dr. S are back safe and sound.

The night life and parties were very similar as well, with the young adults dressing up to visit the pubs.

I would really like to know how Dublin celebrates Halloween compared to the United States. I did however read your link “A history in Halloween”, by Paul Colella. I must admit I did not ever, out of all my years in school, learn about the history of Halloween; I would just dress up and look forward to the candy. There seems to be so much more behind it all, by honoring the dead. Thank you for your post, and I hope to hear about Halloween in Dublin.Jazmin Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06237252857407463413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3043644059030617078.post-33763639188854606332012-11-04T06:22:21.768-08:002012-11-04T06:22:21.768-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jazmin Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06237252857407463413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3043644059030617078.post-82428033285936543272012-11-03T14:08:42.286-07:002012-11-03T14:08:42.286-07:00Yes; they trick or treat and Halloween decorations...Yes; they trick or treat and Halloween decorations were everywhere-quickly replaced by Christmas the next day!Susan Santolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10638342741543366770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3043644059030617078.post-80791939603336578462012-11-01T13:19:14.285-07:002012-11-01T13:19:14.285-07:00Do they trick-or-treat in Dublin?Do they trick-or-treat in Dublin?Kayla Nelsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3043644059030617078.post-38904554565258281212012-10-31T12:21:43.962-07:002012-10-31T12:21:43.962-07:00Absolutely!
