Девочки уходят, выходят трое ведущих и рассказывают историю праздника.
Girl l: It is origins date back hundreds of years to the Druid festival or Samhain, Lord of the Dead and Prince of Darkness. He gathered up the souls to present them to Druid Heaven on the 31st of October. The Sun God shared the holiday and received thanks for the year's harvest.
Girl 2: The Druid New Year begins on the 1st of November. Winter comes and the Lord of Dead rules. So there are many ghosts, goblins, witches, skeletons and cats. Druids lighted huge bonfires to frighten away evil spirits. And we can see bonfires on Halloween today.
Girl 1: Long ago, many people believed that on a certain autumn night dead spirits came back to earth. And people held a festival that was the start of our Halloween. This festival was held on October 31, the evening before All Saint's Day. People built fires on hilltops to scare off the ghosts. They also scared the ghosts away by wearing costumes made of animal heads and skins.
Girl 3: Traces of the festival remain in our Halloween custom. Only today ghosts are children under sheets. The Halloween colors, too, are orange and black. It was time when orange flames lit up the black night. It's not really a religious holiday, it's a holiday for children.
Girl 2: Finally, October arrives. It's the Halloween party. The children pick large orange pumpkins, cut the eyes, nose and mouth and put lights inside them to scare their friends. These lights are called "Jack of the lanterns".
A man named Jack, was kept out of Heaven because he was stingy and expelled from Hell for playing tricks on the Devil.
На сцене появляется Jack-o-lantern, обходит костер и говорит:
Jack: I have to walk the earth forever and carrying a lantern to light my way. (...уходит).
Girl 3: Many people carve happy and funny faces. They place the pumpkins in the windows or on doorsteps.
The children also put on strange masks and frightening costumes every Halloween. Some children paint their faces to look like monsters. Then they carry baskets and hags. They go from house and knock on the door.
They sing "Trick or treat! Trick or treat!", meaning "Give us a treat or we'll play a trick on you". People give the children sweets, cookies and apples. [2]
Girl 1: You are welcome! “The Ghost Who Could Not Say “Wooo…!”
Fortune-teller: I want to tell you a story about ghost who could not say “Whooo…!” A young ghost, Gilly by name, was walking about the dusty road. Then he stopped, sat down on stone began crying. At that moment Polly Pig was passing by.
Polly Pig: What’s the matter?
Gilly Ghost: Oh Polly, I can’t say that word.
Polly Pig: What word?
Gilly Ghost: The word all ghosts say when they go out haunting on Halloween.
Polly Pig: I’d be glad to teach you.
Gilly Ghost: You are a real friend.
Polly Pig: Listen to me, Gilly, “Oink, oink, oink!”
Gilly Ghost: No, Polly, that isn’t the ghost word.
Mr. Cat: Of course, it isn’t the ghost word. What a silly ghost not to know such an important word.
Gilly Ghost: You are right. I can’t haunting if I can’t say that word.
Mr. Cat: I’ll teach you, “Mew, mew, mew!”
Gilly Ghost: I’m sorry but that is not the ghost word either.
Mr. Cat: Let me think… I know who will teach you. He knows anything.
At that moment Mr. Pumpkin came out of the bushes.
Gilly Ghost: Whoooo? That’s it that’s it! Will you me to say that word?
Mr. Pumpkin: Of course, I will!
Miss Witch appeared.
Miss Witch: Ghilly Ghost, that is the best “Whooo…!” I have heard toning. I’m proud of you. Hop on my broomstick and I’ll take you out to haunt with the other ghosts.
Gilly Ghost: Thank you for the lesson, Mr. Pumpkin.
Polly Pig, Mr. Cat: Whooo…! We learn to “Whooo…!” too.
Miss Witch: Anything can happen on Halloween. It’s a magic night.
Miss Witch pointed her long bonny finger at them and kicked her broomstick.
Gilly Ghost: Good-bye!
Polly Pig, Mr. cat, Mr. Pumpkin: Good-bye, we are going haunting too!
And they all sailed together out into the magic night. [2]
После инсценировки выходит девочка читает стихотворение
There Was an Old Witch
There was an old witch believe it if you can,
She tapped on the windows and she ran, ran, ran.
She ran helter skelter with her toes in the air,
Cornstalks flying from the old witches' hair.Swish goes the broomstick, meow goes the cat,
Plop goes the hop-toad sitting on her hat.
"Whee,"chuckled I, "What fun, what fun!"
Hallowe'en night when the witches run! [3]

После спектакля проводятся игры
1) Skeleton Fun
Игрокам двух команд дается задание собрать скелет из “костей” (bones), которые предварительно нужно вырезать из плотного картона. Чем больше “костей”, тем сложнее и интереснее.
2) Pumpkin Bean Bag
Вырежьте из картона маску и раскрасьте ее желтым или оранжевым цветом. Вместо носа, глаз и рта вырежьте отверстия, в которые можно было бы бросить небольшой мячик. Дети по очереди пытаются попасть в эти отверстия и получают за попадания в “рот” - 5 очков, “нос” -10, и по 20 очков за каждый “глаз”. Американские дети обычно бросают –
“bean bag” мешочек, наполненный бобами, отсюда и название игры. [1]
