How do Americans celebrate Halloween?

This is one of the favorite celebrations that Americans have through the year. The reason
for this is that it allows people to dress up in costumes and go to fun parties and events,
but the ones that enjoy Halloween the most are usually the children. They will dress up and
go out with their parents to ask for candy. Trick or treating has been the main way to
celebrate Halloween for everyone in the US.

Halloween is also celebrated by many adults who throw costume parties at their homes.
There are also locations that hold contests for the most amazing looking costumes that
come out to participate and the celebration in general is quite fun for most people, except
those who are not interested having to open their door every five minutes to give candy to
kids.

There are usually pumpkin pies that are made during this celebration because a lot of
people make lanterns out of pumpkins and they are called “Jack-o-lanterns”. People remove
the insides of the pumpkin and they carve different shapes and faces on the outside. A
candle is then placed inside of the pumpkin in order to give it a spooky glow that lights up
the carved figures and can be seen from a long distance.
