Not meaning to hijack - well, I'm gonna do it anyway.

When did people start saying HOLLOWEEN instead of HALLOWEEN? Listen to the commercials on tv. That's what they say now.

Back to the original topic - I hate those orange and black peanut things too. Three Musketeers rule.

I say "Halloween" or "H-ah-lloween" but never "Holloween"

Whoever made this thread either can't spell or doesn't want to

I noticed that they were saying Holloween on the Peanuts Halloween special and tinydancer, didn't they make that when we were in elementary school?

But--Halloween is short for All Hallows' Eve--in some of my older Bobbsey Twin books they were still spelling it Hallowe'en, and that a is definitely a short a!

now: back to plotting how I will gank some chocolate out of my kids' bags.
