   A local man from Surrey laments the loss of the holiday, as it is overrun by what he terms the “rubbish American holiday” of Halloween, con- firming that Americanization is still occurring. The trend seems to be that the tradition is fading in favor of Halloween, making a lot of tradi- tionalists feel regret for the loss of their beloved holiday.
