Halloween - A Celebration of Ghosts and Ghouls
History of Halloween
Halloween Traditions and Customs
One of the most popular Halloween traditions is going trick-or-treating. Children dress up in costumes, visit their neighbors' houses, and ask for candy by saying "trick-or-treat". Halloween parties are also a common occurrence, where people decorate their homes with jack-o'-lanterns, witches, and black cats, and play games such as bobbing for apples and telling ghost stories. Carving pumpkins is another Halloween custom. The tradition of using pumpkins for Halloween originated in Ireland, where turnips or beets were carved in the past. Today, pumpkin carving has become a worldwide phenomenon, and people compete in carving the most imaginative and artistic designs. Other Halloween customs include wearing costumes that range from the cute and funny to the scary and grotesque, watching horror movies, and telling ghost stories.
