Like most holidays, our modern-day version of Halloween has very little to do with its original roots. The way in which it has changed over time, however, can say a vast amount about the modern era. No culture is stationary- all traditional customs of a group of people are infinitely in a state of transition. My goal for Halloween in Brooklyn is to view this local annual tradition through the eyes of a foreigner, lost in a childish sugar rush of both home-made and store-bought pop-culture costumes. It’s Halloween in Brooklyn, and it only happens once a year.
