Title: Do Ukrainians celebrate Halloween? Post by: Frank O on October 08, 2003, 04:00:00 AM Just curious. It turns out I MIGHT be getting married on either Halloween or All Saints Day. Pretty strange last time I got married on Thanksgiving.

I'm not 100% sure, but I suspect that they don't. If you want to introduce this holiday to you friends in Ukraine, take some background information along. A brief history / explanation should suffice. Title: NO THANKS!!!! LOL!!!

They already celebrate WAY too many "holidays"!!! They would just use it as an occasion to try to get me drunk on vodka. Title: Re: Yes, some do... I use to write Post by: wsbill on October 09, 2003, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to NO THANKS!!!! LOL!!!, posted by Frank O on Oct 9, 2003
to a girl who asked me what a neat costume would be and I suggested a "fairy" with wings. I think she was going out to a english/western club and needed a outfit. I'm sure if they've watch our movies, they know what Halloween is all about. But the notion of handing out candy to stangers would be very strange over there indeed. |
