Twenty years ago when we first came to live in Italy there were no traces of vampires, ghouls or witches on the streets the night of October 31st. Neither were there jack-o-lanterns, nor bags full of candy. But that's changed - mostly due to the influence of American movies and TV.

And Halloween parties in Italy are even more convenient because both November 1st and 2nd are national holidays.
