Day-Late, Louis-Short Halloween Story
The 'Day-Late, Louis-Short Halloween Story (in Talossan: Romanet schpeit par 'n ziua es incopös par 'n luïç per l'Oíc'ha da Marderour) is a currently not observed tradition of the Ladintsch community to publish a translation of a short story appropriate for the Halloween season. Although appropriate for Halloween, it is customary to release the translation (well) after Halloween. The tradition was initiated in 2009/XXX, and continued without fail until 2015/XXXVI.
