SCARY HALLOWEEN STORIES

Here's one from Russia:

Halloween Banned in Russian Schools

""Experts of the education department, the Public Advisory Board "Education as Mechanism for Forming moral and spiritual culture of the society" attached to the Education Department, researchers of the State Research Institute for family and upbringing at the Russian Education Academy and the Institute of Teaching Innovations at the Russian Education Academy have passed the judgment concerning negative consequences of Halloween for the teaching and educational process and its participants."

Yeah, and you get pesky kids demanding sweets and candy.
