Everybody forgets poor ol' Saint Nicolas.
I make a point of it.
In my country, Saint Nicolas is celebrated way more than Halloween
My 4 year old kid says Halloween is better than Christmas. So I think you're missing out.
You can still dress up as ghosts and ask people for candy they will just give you firecrackers instead
Traditionally kids do the rounds for candy on December 31th or on epiphany (three kings bringing gifts) around here. It depends on the region if one of those traditions is maintained.
In my area, kids receive money instead of candy when going to people and singing on Saint Nicolas, between Saint Nicolas and Christmas, before Christmas, on Christmas, after Christmas and on New Year day
I also know that different parts of my country do the same
I guess not everyone likes his helpers
