Curious. We've got a broad mix here and Halloween's big. Obviously with the Latino population Dia de los Muertos is everywhere. Our Korean exchange student last year said Halloween is mostly unknown in Asia (makes sense, considering the Irish/European origins) but found it silly fun. The modest Indian/Pakistani population seems to get into it as well. The only "culture" I've ever run into that doesn't participate in Halloween are the ultra-conservative Christian denominations that argue we're going to Hell for "glorifying the devil." They sponsor wholesome, religious-themed "Fall Festivals" to save souls from the perils of trick-or-treating. We always opt for the Catholic school's Halloween Carnival instead, because they've totally got that spook house thing down.
