Do people celebrate Halloween in the Caribbean? The fact that Halloween is a big part of European and North American tradition– the question is does the Caribbean? Do the tropical islands celebrate the spooky holiday too? For the most part, the answer is no. And this makes perfect sense, because of the fact that October 31st is commonly associated with certain Fall staples that, for the most part, doesn't exist in the Caribbean, like carved pumpkins and warty gourds. However, Halloween celebrations are poping up in certain Caribbean countries. For example, many resorts host Halloween celebrations for guests, inviting them to dress in costume and participate in party games. These hotels cater to their North American and European guests by putting up spooky decorations and staging fun games and events for both adults and kids. Providenciales in Turks and Caicos is particularly well known for Halloween extravaganzas. In fact, you can actually visit some rather spooky sites while traveling the Caribbean where truly scary events have taken place. Here are just a handful of them: • The moving coffins of Chase vault in Barbados. In the town of Oistins, Barbados, there’s a mysterious empty vault in a cemetery next to Christ Church Parish Church. • Rose Hall, the home of the White Witch. According to tradition, Annie Palmer was a voodoo-practicing witch who murdered her three husbands and tortured her slaves, until one of them killed her for revenge. Rose Hall itself is a a stately Georgian mansion near Montego Bay, Jamaica. • Eden Brown Estate ruins in Nevis. Dubbed the most haunted site in Nevis, it’s been said that the ghost of a heartbroken fiancee roams these ruins late at night. Built around 1740, the estate was supposed to be the site of a wedding in 1822. (at Caribbean Sea) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVrzpRzgmee/?utm_medium=tumblr
