Does anyone still celebrate Halloween? I'm curious about other people's experiences. We're throwing a party, and friends and family seem excited even though it's not really a thing here.

Edit: OK, I assumed it wasn't a big deal here because the Halloween section at SM has like 20 items.

Second question: is it more common in Luzon than in the Visayas?

Where I live in the province, they bring food to the graves of family members who've passed. I think they call it All Souls' Day.

I think it's pretty popular in the Philippines. Not so much in the UK.

Lots of gated villages and condos in Makati and BGC celebrate it. Alabang too.

Don't care

I don't, and I don't care that it isn't a thing here

A Catholic country

It's predominantly a Catholic country. Halloween is seen as mocking All Saints' Day
