I always thought Halloween was an American holiday. Obviously, it has
spread world wide (see S. Korea.) Am I wrong - how long has it been done
in the UK?

It was a Celtic thang and hijacked by the USAnians and modified a norrid
lot with 'trick or treat', horrrrr, pumpkins &c.

In Ireland at least, lanternheads were carved from turnips, Wales too, I
believe. USAnians found it too hard to carve turnips and turned to
pumpkins which were easier and bigger, and biggerer, and eventually,
biggererer still.

https://www.historic-uk.com/CultureUK/Halloween/ - another Celtic tradition

trick or treating is an import to the UK from the USA in the last couple of
decades, but has it's origins in Canada according to
https://www.historic-uk.com/CultureUK/Halloween/ but based on earlier
traditions from Ireland & Scotland

In its current form, since ET.
Prior to that we just hollowed out turnips, did some duck apple and
maybe had a walk around the block.

The begging for sweets defo came in the '80s.

On the other hand it has replaced "Penny for the guy"
