When did Halloween make the breakthrough in Mallorca? Answer, or an answer, is when retailers cottoned on to a decent earner. Time was when the local supermarkets wouldn’t have had in-your-face displays of witches as you, and especially the younger ones, enter. They now do. A Mallorcan ‘Nit Bruixa’ (Witch Night) is January 16, the eve of Sant Antoni, but the bruixes have learned to haul out their broomsticks and fly two and a half months earlier.
