Writer rejects Halloween as a crass American import

Original: Halloween is a crass American import – I'll never indulge it

A UK columnist argues that Halloween is a crass American commercial import and says she will never take part in it. The piece frames the festival as an unwelcome cultural export that has displaced British traditions, prompting debate over whether Halloween's growth in the UK is harmless fun or an intrusion of American consumerism into local customs.

Why now: Halloween is approaching, reigniting the recurring debate in Britain about whether it is a fun celebration or an unwanted American import.
