A bucket of Scotch whiskey adds another level of amusement.Apple bobbing, also known as bobbing for apples, is a game often played in connection with Halloween. The game is played by filling a tub or a large basin with water and putting apples in the water. Because apples are less dense than water, they will float at the surface. Players (usually children) then try to catch one with their teeth. Use of hands is not allowed, and often are tied behind the back to prevent cheating.

Mods, nuke this thread.
Correct.Well India has nothing to do with halloween
Well, I certainly believe only what I read in the newspaper.Correct.
Not even a mention of it on any newspapers.
Christianity is a very wise religion. It used pagan festivals to ensure that those being converted do not feel too uncomfortable.Halloween falls around the same time as Diwali and Kali Puja.
Halloween has a lot to do with spirits. As per many Indians, amavasya (no Moon) also coincides with Diwali and Kali Puja and has a lot to do with spirits. Could be a coincidence, but there is indeed a coincidence.
One cannot deny that there are lot of similarities, coincidential or otherwise, between pagan Greek or pagan European festivals and Indian festivals w.r.t. the month of the year.
