Halloween
Long ago, people believed that on a certain night dead spirits came back to earth. And people held a festival that was the start of our Halloween. It was on October 31st.
They dress up as ghosts, witches, clowns or pirates and visit their neighbours.
“Trick or Treat” they cry. You have to give them a treat: some fruit, sweets or chocolate. If not they’ll play trick on you.
The Halloween colours are orange and black. It was time when orange flames lit up the black night.
Families carve their pumpkins. Some people carve funny pumpkin faces.
They place the pumpkins in windows… …or on doorsteps.
American and British schools have parades of children in costumes.
These are the symbols of Halloween: Spiders Skeletons Black cats Bats Ghosts Witches
I WOULD LIKE… to have a fancy party to tell scary stories to play games to throw flour on doorsteps to wear an awful costume to mess around
