(I wonder what the plural of that would be.) <b>@anon #7:</b> Technically, "Hallowe'en" is the proper spelling, since it's a contraction of the holiday's old name: "All Hallows' Even" (i.e. the evening before All Hallows Day -- or All Saints Day -- which falls on 1 November). Nowadays, it's become more common (at least in the United States) to drop the apostrophe, and spell it "Halloween". I'm not entirely sure; but I think the older spelling is still commonly used in Britain, where Cory lives. Either spelling is acceptable; but Cory's spelling is the traditional, and more correct, of the two. Mmmmm … octopie.
