Greenland has its own version of Halloween, called MITAARTUT, on January 6 at Epiphany time. It's a Greenlandic tradition, not a public holiday, but schools close early. Children dressed as ghosts visit houses to sing and dance on doorsteps and receive sweets, but also go around town gently scaring passers-by. Participants call themselves mitaartoq, literally "people in disguise". People have fun guessing which children are hiding behind each disguise!
