The Icelandic Halloween is today
If you are in Iceland don't be afraid if you see some of us running around in strange garments.....it's just our Icelandic Halloween day, we call it Öskudagur (or Ash-day).
We want to point out few nice costumes choices (see photos below). Even though Spiderman and other superheroes are always popular our personal favourite is the whale-costume. It always guarantees a nice smile from people's faces following with a nice warm hug. People just love the whales and we can’t blame them for it, we love them too:)
If you don't find a nice whales-suit around, the smiley-face is always a good one but since we are always smiling it just wouldn't make much of a difference for us:D
This day is a good excuse to dress up as your favourite superhero, try out your mother's wardrobe or just walk down the main street as a whale and have -a whale of a time-, so go wild and have a happy Öskudagur!!! :D
Every neighbour should have a friendly whale living next door although Spiderman is always nice too;)
