What you mean everyone doesn't do the witches thing on easter?!?

OK here it goes;

On Maundy Thursday the witches get on their brooms and fly to Bluehill where they dance with the devil (don't laugh). On Easter Eve they return and to prevent them coming down the chimneys stealing the kids we lit bonfires and shot off fireworks to scare them away. To symbolise this the kids dress up as witches like below and hand out home made happy easter cards in exchange for candy, fruit or money when knocking on peoples doors. So you mean like that easter is about chocolate bunnies and such and not about witches

Typical Happy Easter card can have a daffodil, a chicken, egg and/or a bunny painted on them.
