What is Halloween?
Halloween is a celebration celebrated on October 31, in the USA, Canada, UK, Ireland, and more other countries. Its origins are linked to ancient Celtic festivals, particularly Samhain, which marked the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter.
The festival is believed to have been a time when the boundary between the living and the dead became blurred, allowing spirits to roam the earth.
During this festival, people also send Halloween wishes messages to their friends.
Main Aspects of Halloween:
- Costumes and decorations: People wear costumes and houses are decorated with themes related to ghosts, witches, and other supernatural elements.
- Trick-or-treating: Children go door-to-door in their neighborhood asking for candy with the phrase "trick or treat." The "trick" part is a mischievous threat that they will do mischief if they are not given a treat.
- Haunted houses events: Many communities build haunted houses to celebrate events and parties.
- Jack-o-lanterns: Carving pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns with different facial expressions is a traditional Halloween activity. These are displayed on doorways or windows.
- Parties and parades: Halloween is also marked by costume parties, themed parades, and various festive activities.
The festival has changed considerably over time, combining ancient traditions with modern customs to make it a unique and widely celebrated festival.
