LISTEN AND SING THIS FUNNY HALLOWEEN SONG

HAPPY TRICK OR TREATING!

Halloween is on October 31st and, although it originated with the Celts in Europe, it has become popular in the US and South America too. People go to Halloween parties wearing scary masks and costumes. The word 'Halloween' comes from All Hallows Evening or Allhalloween.

Halloween, for the Celts, marked the end of the harvesting season and the beginning of winter. They also believed it was a supernatural bridge between the worlds of the living and the dead and that on the night of Halloween ghosts, witches and evil spirits crossed over.The Celts wore scary costumes and lit fires to keep the evil away. Nowadays it is a time of fun and celebration.

Typical Halloween activities include playing pranks (Trick or treats), going to costume parties, carving pumpkins, lighting bonfires and telling ghost stories.
