That is a very good question.

Halloween has not really taken off in Australia, and few Australians actually participate, jusging by the complete absence of anyone visiting our home on Halloween in any given past year. However, as the influence of American television on Australian culture has increased, celebrations such as Halloween have made a half-hearted attempt to be introduced. Stores and retailers have made a half-hearted attempt to capitalise on the Halloween commercialism, but some enterprising teenagers still try to get chocolate and lollies by Trick or treating. However, we never see costumes in the street, and few people have "Halloween" themed parties. As of 2010, the Halloween influence remains very limited.

A poll held on Australia's leading news site (news.com.au) at the end of October 2009 indicated that 85% of Australians think Halloween should be ditched as it is totally irrelevant, whilst 15% of Australians said they love it and wanted to keep it.
