As October 31st approaches, two camps emerge: those who are dying to pull their costumes out of the closet to celebrate Halloween, and those who prefer to stay home eating panellets, chestnuts, and sweet potatoes. In Montcada i Reixac, there are all sorts of people, but it seems the scales tip towards the spooky celebrations: when Halloween arrives, an entire neighborhood transforms into a movie set worthy of... Nightmare on Elm StreetThe houses in the Terra Nostra neighborhood are filled with pumpkins, haunted tunnels, door-to-door screams and sugared almonds, and above all, a chilling atmosphere.

First year of bittersweet balance in Montcada i Reixac compared to the already Historic underground railway tracks. After decades of waiting for the start of these works, the local council reported at the end of January the appearance of significant cracks in some floors of up to three different buildings in the Can Sant Joan neighbourhood, which is located within the area affected by the R2 underground works. These are gaps in the ceiling, floor and walls that in some cases even allow a glimpse of the street or adjacent neighbours.
