HALLOWEEN

10
On October 31, people in some English speaking countries, especially Americans celebrate Halloween. Halloween means “holly” (hallow) “evening” (een), “holly evening” (halloween). This is the evening before the Christian holy day of All Saints Day. On All Saints Day, Christians remember the saints. But Halloween is even older than Christianity.
Before Christianity, people in Europe believed that on October 31 ghosts of dead people came back. To scare the ghosts, people dressed like devils and were very noisy. They also made big fires to keep the ghosts away. Later, people did not believed in Ghosts, but they still keep the day of Halloween.
Immigrants came from Europe to America and brought with them the custom of Halloween. Halloween has some strange symbols. One symbols is the jack-o-lantern in the window. The jack-o-latern is to scare the ghosts. People cut the pumpkin, throw away all the inside, and cut a face in it. Then they put a candle inside of it. Jack-o-lanterns usually look scary, too!
Today, in the US, Halloween is very popular with children. They wear masks and special costumes. They want to look like skeletons and ghosts. Then they go from house to house and say “Trick or Treat!”. People give them candies, cookies, or fruit. When people give nothing, the children sometimes play tricks to them.
