More about Halloween

This is what my friend JUDE from the USA wrote for you about Halloween. Look at the photos she took, she is a great photographer.

Halloween is my favorite holiday. It gives people of all ages the opportunity to dress up and have fun. I love to be waited on by a witch or a Tinkerbell when I go to the bank.

Costumes can be anything or anyone you want, including superheros, fictional characters, real people, etc. I have a huge cook’s hat and apron that is my costume. I will wear it on October 31^st. when I answer my door for kids going “trick-or-treating”. They say “trick or treat” and I will give them candy to put into the bags they carry.

I will have a pumpkin on my front porch and turn on the light so they will know to come to my house.

Thanks so much, Jude!

Halloween History

Halloween is on October 31st, the last day of the Celtic calendar. It was originally a pagan holiday, honoring the dead. Halloween was referred to as All Hallows Eve and dates back to over 2000 years ago.

Jack on lantern (Pumpkin lantern) history

In Ireland, where Halloween began, the first jack-o’-lanterns weren’t made of pumpkins. They were made out of rutabagas, potatoes, turnips, or even beets! There is an old Irish legend about a man named Stingy Jack who was too mean to get into heaven and had played too many tricks on the devil to go to hell. When he died, he had to walk the earth, carrying a lantern made out of a turnip with a burning coal inside. Stingy Jack became known as “Jack of the Lantern,” or “Jack-o’-Lantern.”
