me getting ready for Halloween a few years back

Halloween is an annual event celebrated each year on October 31, and Halloween occurs on Wednesday this year. It originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to frighten off ghosts but why ward of ghosts if they just come back? Americans stole the English and Irish traditions, and began to dress up in costumes and go house to house asking for food or money, a practice that eventually became today’s “trick-or-treat” tradition.

eeeeeeeeeeekkkkkkk 

In the late 1800s, there was a move in America to mould Halloween into a event more about community and neighbourly get-together than about ghosts, pranks and witchcraft. At the turn of the century, Halloween parties for both children and adults became the most common way to celebrate the day. Parties focused on games, foods of  the season and festive costumes.

Halloween has always been a event filled with mystery, magic and superstition. It began as a Celtic end-of-summer festival during which people felt especially close to deceased relatives and friends. For these friendly spirits, they set places at the dinner table, left treats on doorsteps and along the side of the road and lit
candles to help loved ones find their way back to the spirit world.
