In Puerto Rico, we have a lot of stories, urban leyends, and all that scary stuff that is Halloween. Halloween it is really well celebrated in Puerto Rico, we have that tradition of going out at night too to collect candy from strangers, and we also sing a Halloween song like before going to a house and ask for candy, and the song or lyrics goes like this: "Halloween trick or treat, dame chavo y no maní, no te escondas que te ví en la casa de Pepín.", the lyrics changes a lot it depends where are you in the area of Puerto Rico. 

In Puerto Rico we have the leyend of "El Chupacabras"
