Halloween

is a festival

that takes place

on October 31.

In the United States

children wear costumes and masks

and go trick-or-treating.

Many of them

carve jack-o'-lanterns

out of

pumpkins .

Fortunetelling

and storytelling

about ghosts

and witches

are popular

activities.  

The main Halloween activity for

Children is trick-or-treating. Children

dress in costumes and masks and go

from door to door saying "trick or

treat". The neighbours give children

such treats as candy, fruit and pennies

So that children do not play tricks on

them.

Most jack-o'-lanterns contain

a candle inside. An Irish legend says that jack-o'-lanterns

are named

after the

man called

Jack. 

He could not enter

heaven

because

he was

a miser,

and he could not enter

hell because

he had

played jokes

on devil.

As a result,

Jack has

to walk on the

earth with his

lantern until

Judgment Day.  

Fortunetelling is

an important part of Halloween .

For example, a coin,

a ring ,

and a thimble

were baked into a cake.

It was believed that the person

who found the coin

would become wealthy .

The one who found the ring

would marry soon .

And the person who found the thimble

would never get married.

People once believed that there

were many ghosts

and witches on the Earth

and that they

met on October31

to worship

the devil.

Today, people

do not believe in ghosts

and witches but they

like to tell stories

About them on

Halloween.
