Reply to comment by Restless_Wonderer in TIL about Ragamuffin Day, a celebration in the New York metro area in the late-1800s and early-1900s in which children wore costumes and went door-to-door asking for candy or money on Thanksgiving. It fell out of favor as trick-or-treating on Halloween gained acceptance in the 1940s and '50s. by PikesPique

The rabbit is because it's a traditional symbol of spring

Why are you linking an American/Asian traditional symbol as if it has any application to European culture?
