Description
Halloween is celebrated on October 31st in many countries. Its origins date back to an ancient Celtic festival that celebrated the end of the harvest season. In the United States, children dress up in costumes and go from house to house trick or treating and collecting candy. It is also a time of carving pumpkins into smiling and sometimes scary faces. People of all ages visit haunted houses, go to Halloween parties and have fun recalling mysterious events.
