Halloween takes place on October 31st. it is a festival to celebrate autumn, just as May Day is a festival to celebrate spring. The name Halloween means “hallowed” or “holy evening”.
Originally, the Halloween festival was quite simple and was celebrated in church. But, all over Europe people looked upon this occasion as an opportunity to have fun, to tell spooky tales, and to scare each other. So instead of being devoted to the celebration of autumn, it became a holiday devoted to the supernatural witches and ghosts.
