Fun fact- The Irish girls at work tell me:
Ireland
Halloween had its origins in the festival of Samhain among the Celts of ancient Britain and Ireland.
Yep British nicked a lot of the Celtic Samhain traditions for All Hallows Tide and brought it across to the New World. Irish immigrants then went over later and it all kind of just coalesced into something resembling modern Halloween. Americans only really added the horror theme and unsurprisingly masses of candy.

This won't even make Billie Boy's annual top-10 list for evil and dumb cluster****s, but it is so classic MS.
First their 'hot' new console gets mocked for looking like a fridge, so some bright spark at the company says 'ha! let's get one step ahead of the mockery and actually make a fridge!'...the other bright spark's go 'brilliant!'...and we end up here!

But that's the least of the Xbox Mini Fridge's problems. The primary issue? It doesn't actually make things cool!
In our 32°C test chamber, it took around 24 hours to take eight cans to a not-that-cold-actually 21°C. For context, that's warmer than water from the tap.
…
Soggy performance
Then there's the moisture issue. During our testing, the Xbox Mini Fridge almost immediately started to pool an alarming amount of moisture. This doesn't just make it problematic to store anything that isn't exceptionally well-sealed, it could also cause mould issues down the track.
Others have reported in online forums that the moisture also makes it much easier for the vents to ice over. Again, not ideal.
Besides not actually making things cold and the pooling of moisture, the Xbox Mini Fridge has an energy consumption issue.
…
Our testing found that if you ran the Xbox Mini Fridge 24 hours a day, it would pull down a ludicrous 376kWh a year at an ambient temperature of 32°C. For context, that's roughly equivalent to the energy use of a 500-litre compressor fridge in your kitchen – a device that is actually capable of cooling its contents.
With its puny 10 litres of storage capacity, the Xbox Mini Fridge holds nowhere near that much. It technically isn't a real fridge, and it doesn't perform like one either. In fact, in order for it to be useful, you'll need to cool your drinks in a regular fridge first. Which makes us wonder why anyone would ever want, let alone need, this lemon of a product.
…
E-waste straight out of the box
"The Xbox Mini Fridge is essentially e-waste straight out of the box," says CHOICE fridge expert Ashley Iredale.
"This questionable addition to your gaming rig isn't powerful enough to cool your drinks – you need to chill them in a real fridge first – which is disappointing because it sure draws a whole lot of power, using as much electricity as the full-sized fridge in our kitchen."
All this is particularly disappointing in the wake of Microsoft's good-faith attempts to help in the fight against climate change. Of all the major console platform holders, Microsoft has been the most vocal about its attempts to curb power use.
With "carbon aware" software updates and a number of options to make your console gaming more energy-efficient, Microsoft has been at the forefront of a number of initiatives designed to lower the carbon footprint of video games.
Which makes it all the more ironic that a 'fridge', designed to look like its video game console, is so energy-hungry.
Pretty shonky if you ask us.
