Halloween

Halloween is a traditional celebration held on October 31st. Halloween is the day or evening before All Saints’ Day. Halloween customs date back to a time when people believed in devils, witches and ghosts. They thought that these evil spirits could do all kinds of damage to property. Some people tried to ward off witches by painting magic signs on their doors and windows or hang a horseshoe over the door.
Today, Halloween is theme costume parties, and entertainment with horror films, haunted houses and other activities around the popular themes of ghosts, witches, Dracula, werewolves and the supernatural.    At Halloween parties the guests wear every kind of costume. Many of them wear masks. The hosts usually decorate the rooms with paper moons, vampires, bats, ghosts  and black cats. They set jack-o’-lanterns (pumpkins with scary faces) in the windows.

Jack’s story

The Jack O'Lantern legend goes back hundreds of years in Irish History. As the story goes, Stingy Jack was a miserable, old drunk who liked to play tricks on everyone. One day, he tricked the Devil into climbing up an apple tree. Once the Devil climbed up the apple tree, Stingy Jack hurriedly placed crosses around the trunk of the tree. The Devil was then unable to get down the tree. Stingy Jack made the Devil promise him not to take his soul when he died. Once the devil promised not to take his soul, Stingy Jack removed the crosses and let the Devil down. Many years later, when Jack finally died, he went to the pearly gates of Heaven and was told by Saint Peter that he was too mean and too cruel, and had led a miserable and worthless life on earth. He was not allowed to enter heaven. He then went down to Hell and the Devil. The Devil kept his promise and would not allow him to enter Hell. Now Jack had nowhere to go but to wander about forever in the darkness between heaven and hell.

Halloween is usually celebrated by both adults and kids. Some families celebrate by having costume parties and playing special games like bobbing for apples and telling ghost stories.  Many Halloween stories and games are hundreds of years old.
Children love to dress up in Halloween costumes. They also put on strange masks or paint their faces to look like monsters. They carry baskets, boxes or bags from house to house in their neighborhood following the old tradition of trick-or-treating. They mean, “Give us a treat or we will play a trick on you.” The children collect sweets and gifts, sometimes money, mainly fruit and nuts. These are used for playing traditional games like eating an apple on a string or bobbing for apples and other gifts in a basin of water, without using your hands.
Halloween is not a national holiday. Schools, offices and banks do not close. Schools usually prefer to celebrate Halloween by having children dress as storybook characters. In this way, children are still allowed to "dress up”, and the holiday becomes both fun and educational.
