Speaker 1 (00:00):
Please, he's deeper in the den with Dangerous Day. Well,
it's a time of year we start thinking about traditions
and time honored American traditions. There's some people will never
give up and there's others people would love to never
think about again. Somebody asked on social media what common
American traditions or holidays you think will not exist in
twenty five years. Some of the best responses include class
(00:22):
reunions mainly because of social media, bobbing for apples at Halloween,
trick or treating in your neighborhood. People say designated areas
are a better way to go. Gender revealed parties partially
do because people are overwhelmed with baby related events, Christmas cards.
They might already be dying out, possibly because of social media.
Black Friday it's moved online, so it's become less of
(00:43):
a thing. Beauty pageants for obvious reasons. Saint Patrick's Day,
some people say it's become regional. There's still some major
things going on in areas, but not others. Block parties.
People are asking do they still exist? And car culture.
People think it peaked with these silence and the boomers.
I don't know. I think there's still a car culture.
My culture is to get in it and drive to work,
(01:04):
get in it and drive back home deeper in the two.
Happy Halloween to you. It's finally hearing for some of us.
It's been a long time coming. The average person started
prepping for Halloween and thinking about costumes about five weeks ago.
People in their twenties and thirties have been prepping for
seven weeks, and those people who say they go big
have been prepping since mid August. According to the National
Retail Federation, we spend about eleven billion dollars on Halloween
(01:28):
this year, about one hundred and four dollars per person,
including three point eight billion on costumes, three point eight
billion on decorations, and three point five billion on candy
half a billion on greeting cards. My question is who's
buying those Seventy two percent of Americans celebrating this year,
sixty seven percent will hand out candy, and fifty two
percent of put up decorations. Forty nine percent are dressing up.
(01:50):
Is Halloween more a younger person's holiday? In general? Twenty
one percent of adults between eighteen and thirty say it's
their favorite, or only twelve percent of people older than
that would agree. Eleven percent of a Maria can say
it's a harmful holiday, seventy seven percent say it's just
harmless fun, and twelve percent weren't sure. Top costumes for
kids this year Spider Man saw a lot of those
Last Night Ghost Princess, which saw a lot of frozen
(02:13):
costumes as well from the movie. Top costumes for adults,
which Vampire, Cat, bat Man, top costume for pets, Pumpkin,
hot Dog, bat and Ghost. Twenty four percent of Americans
claim they've seen a ghost before, nineteen percent of men
and twenty nine percent of women twenty four percent. Ten
percent of those said the ghost was somebody they knew
in fourteen percent said it was a random stranger. Website

called Affordable Earns ranked the most haunted states in America too,
top five or all in the Northeast, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts,
New Jersey, and Delaware. National Confectioners Association says ninety seven
percent of people who answer the door for turkey traders
we'll hand out candy, so I guess three percent are apples,
tooth brush and raisin types. Okay. Our favorite Halloween candy,
(02:55):
Reese's Peanut butter Cups tops the list to gain this year,
followed by Snickers, Kit Cats, M and M, and then
Butterfinger and Milky Ways. The average person bought their first
bag of candy two and a half weeks ago, so
you know that's long gone for sure, And thirty seven
percent of people who hand out candy make sure they
buy popular candy to protect their reputation as a good
house to hit on Halloween. Otherwise, if you hand out crap,
(03:17):
you're going to have a good house to hit on
Halloween with eggs? Can anybody afford to throw eggs anymore? Anyway? Too?
