How do Americans spend Halloween?

The legal date of this festival is June 3 1 every year, but actually from the beginning of 10, there is a festive atmosphere everywhere. The most obvious thing is that all shops will be decorated with cobwebs, witches, vampires, skulls and so on. Many people began to put pumpkin lanterns in front of their homes.

On this day, many people will have a party, and the food and drinks at the party should be made weird and bloody.

Halloween food includes: pumpkin pie, apples, candy, beef and mutton, etc.

The origin of festivals

Halloween costume

Halloween English is All Saints Day, also known as "all saints' gifts", which is one of the festivals of Catholicism and Orthodox Church, and is also a traditional festival in western countries. Chinese-speaking areas often mistake Halloween for Halloween.

"Hallow" comes from Middle English halwen, which is close to the etymology of holy. In some parts of Scotland and Canada, Halloween is still called "Halloween". On that day, a mass ceremony will be held to celebrate all the saints in heaven.

Now, for commercial interests or other purposes, organizing various activities full of monsters on the night of June 5438+1October 3 1 completely deviates from the sacred significance of Halloween.
