Halloween (or Hallowe’en) is a holiday celebrated on October 31. Halloween activities include trick-or-treating, ghost tours, bonfires, costume parties, visiting haunted attractions, carving jack-o'-lanterns, reading scary stories, and watching horror movies.

Halloween is celebrated in several countries of the Western world. Halloween is also becoming increasing popular with children in other countries due to the influences of American pop culture....
