HALLOWEN

Halloween, also called Night of the Dead, is a modern result of celebrating the end of summer party of Celtic origin called Samhain. It is celebrated on the night of October 31, both with family and friends, especially in countries of Anglo-Saxon origin, such as Canada, the United States, Ireland or the United Kingdom and, to a lesser extent, in other places such as Spain and Latin America. In some countries this celebration is not preserved. Its origin is also related to the Christian holiday of All Saints' Day, celebrated by Catholics on November 1. The Irish passed on the tradition to North America during the Great Irish Famine. It is celebrated at night when everything is dark. On that day the colors are orange, black and purple. The typical Halloween activities are the famous trick or treat asking for sweets and dresser costume, in addition to the bonfires, the visit of haunted houses, the jokes, the reading of horror stories and watching horror movies.
