Halloween is a popular annual celebration observed on October 31, primarily in Western countries like the United States, Canada, and the UK. Rooted in ancient Celtic traditions (particularly the festival of Samhain), it marked the end of harvest and the beginning of winter, a time when the boundary between the living and the dead was believed to blur.
Today, Halloween blends folklore, superstition, and fun. Key customs include:
Costumes: People dress as ghosts, witches, or pop-culture figures to ward off spirits or embrace the spooky theme.
Trick-or-Treating: Children go door-to-door collecting candy, threatening playful mischief if treats aren’t given.
Decorations: Homes are adorned with jack-o’-lanterns (carved pumpkins), skeletons, and cobwebs.
Haunted Attractions: Spooky events like haunted houses or corn mazes thrill participants.
The holiday also ties to harvest festivals and Christian observances like All Saints’ Day (November 1). Modern Halloween emphasizes community, creativity, and lighthearted scares, though some still honor its mystical origins.
