Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback
The displays are limited to pumpkins on the doorstep and a big display like yours would definitely draw a great deal of attention. You also have to remember that in most cases, the end of October equals darkness, rain and low temperatures in most of Sweden, snow in the north, so the population is extremely reluctant to go outside in large numbers this time of year.
We have a very similar tradition in Easter time, though. It's usually in daylight and since that is in the spring and always on a weekend, it's a better time to be outside. Kids dress up as "Easter maids" similar to witches, and walk from house to house handing out little hand written letters and receiving candy in baskets.
The tradition is under development over here. Trick-or-Treaters can show up on several evenings depending on how the days fall in the calendar. We traditionally celebrate Halloween in a more somber and death-related way by visiting graves of passed relatives and lighting candles on the first Saturday of November while you celebrate strictly on Oct 31, right? This leads to some confusion and we get Tricksters on both days.
