Halloween is a fun autumn festival that is celebrated in many countries around the world.

Halloween falls on October 31 every year. Halloween is also known as All Hallows' Eve or All Saints' Eve.

Halloween has its roots in the Christian holy day of All Saints and the Celtic festival of Samhain.

Ancient people believed that the spirits of the dead walked the earth at Halloween. Ghosts of family
members who had died were honoured and invited home, and bad spirits were scared off.

Many adults enjoy attending fancy dress parties, going on ghost tours, visiting haunted houses, and
watching horror films at Halloween.

Traditional Halloween activities for kids include wearing costumes, carving pumpkin lanterns, telling
scary stories, and playing tricks on people.

Children often dress up in costumes and go out trick-or-treating, collecting sweets from houses that they
visit.

Popular halloween costumes include witches, vampires, skeletons, werewolves and ghosts.
