AP PHOTOS: 3-day Halloween festival draws huge crowds to Romania’s capital, Bucharest

The Romanian capital Bucharest boasts a perfect location for Halloween festivities — and visitors love it. More than 80,000 people descended last weekend on Bucharest’s Insula Ingerilor, or Angels’ Island peninsula, for the three-day West Side Hallo Fest, the largest Halloween festival in the Eastern European nation since the fall of communism. Both the Angels’ Island and the surrounding Lacul Morii lake have been shrouded in mystery stories ever since the lake was artificially created in the late 1980s.
