On October
31st, we celebrate
Halloween, thought to
be the one night of the
year when ghosts,
witches, and fairies are
especially active. So
what do people do on
Halloween Day in
England?
are hollowed out pup!ins
with a face cut in one side
and a candle put inside. "n the
old days people lit #res to scare
away bad spirits. $hey believed
light had power over dar!ness.
$oday %ac!&o&lanterns are
supposed to frighten away
ghosts and witches.
One Halloween party
gae is called
'bobbing for
apples(. )pples
are put in a big bowl
full of water. $he players,
soeties blindfolded
ust ta!e an apple out of
the water without using
their hands.
On Halloween, when it was believed
that bad spirits cae bac! to the
earthly world, people thought they
would eet ghosts if they left their
hoes. $o avoid being recogni*ed
by ghosts people would wear as!s
when they left hoes after dar! sothat the ghosts would
ista!e the for fellow
spirits. $hat(s why
Halloween
