Introduction to Halloween
Every year. October 31th is Halloween. It is usually called Halloween. But the atmosphere of this day is far from "creepy" as its name suggests. Whenever Halloween comes, children can't wait to put on colorful make-up clothes, put on strange masks, carry a "Jack-o-lantern" and go around asking adults for holiday gifts. These are the most well-known symbols of Halloween-the strange "jack-o'-lantern" and the practical joke of "performing magic or giving candy".
The "Jack-o-lantern" looks very cute, and the method is extremely simple. Hollow out the pumpkin, then carve smiling eyes and a big mouth on the outside, then insert a candle in the pumpkin and light it, so that people can see this naive smiling face from a far distance. This is the children's favorite plaything.
However, the highlight of Halloween is still on the dining table. You should not only prepare delicious food to entertain those "kids" who come to make trouble, but also dress up your dining table on this special festival. Don't let your guests underestimate you!
This night is the most haunted time of the year, and all kinds of monsters, pirates, alien visitors and witches are out in succession. Before the Christian era, the Celts held a ceremony in the summer to thank God and the sun for their kindness. At that time, diviners lit and practiced witchcraft to drive away monsters who were said to be wandering around. Later, the harvest festival celebrated by the Romans with nuts and apples merged with the Celtic on October 31. In the Middle Ages, people wore animal-shaped costumes and terrible masks to drive away ghosts in the dark on Halloween. Although Christianity later replaced Celtic and Roman religious activities, the early customs remained. Nowadays, children wear all kinds of costumes and masks to participate in Halloween dances. Witches, black cats, ghosts and bones with paper paste are often hung on the walls around these dances, while grinning or ugly pumpkin lanterns are hung at the windows and doors. Children often try to bite the hanging apples.
[Edit this paragraph] The origin of Halloween
There are many versions of the legend about the origin of Halloween. It is generally believed that it originated from ancient western European countries before the birth of Christ, mainly including Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The ancient western Europeans in these places are called druitt people. Druitt's New Year is on November 1st, New Year's Eve. People in druitt make young people gather in groups, wear all kinds of weird masks and carry carved radish lanterns (pumpkin lanterns are a late custom, and there were no pumpkins in ancient western Europe), and they wander among villages. At that time, it was actually a celebration of autumn harvest; It is also said to be "Ghost Festival". It is said that the souls of those who died in that year will visit the world on the eve of Halloween. It is said that people should let the visiting ghosts see a good harvest and show rich hospitality to them. All bonfires and lights, in order to scare away ghosts, also illuminate the route for ghosts and guide them to return.
In medieval Central Europe, there was a history of Christianity destroying pagans. However, the sacrificial ceremony before New Year's Eve has never really been eliminated, but it has appeared in the form of witchcraft. This is why we still have traces of witches' brooms, black cats, spells and so on in Halloween.
Two legends about the origin of Halloween:
The first
More than two thousand years ago, the Catholic Church in Europe designated October 1 as "ALL HALLOWS DAY". "HALLOW" means saint. Legend has it that since 511 BC, CELTS living in Ireland, Scotland and other places moved this festival forward by one day, that is, October 31. They think that this day is the day when summer officially ends, that is, the beginning of the new year and the beginning of the harsh winter. At that time, people believed that on this day, the dead soul of the deceased would return to the former residence to look for living beings, so as to be reborn, and this was the only hope for people to be reborn after death. The living are afraid of the dead soul to seize life, so people put out the fire and candlelight on this day, so that the dead soul can't find the living, and dress up as monsters to scare away the souls of the dead. After that, they will rekindle the candlelight and start a new year's life. Legend has it that at that time, Celtic tribes still had the custom of killing the living to commemorate the dead on October 31.
In the 1th century, the Romans who occupied the territory of Celtic tribes gradually accepted the Halloween custom, but the barbaric practice of burning the living to sacrifice the dead was abolished. The Roman harvest festival was combined with the Celtic ceremony, wearing terrible masks and playing ...

why do you eat apples on Halloween?
Halloween is also called pumpkin festival and ghost festival. In western countries, children pretend to be ghosts, witches, put on all kinds of strange clothes and go door to door to ask for candy. I just came back from the United States, and now there are several pumpkins in disguise at every door, and doughnuts are also very popular for eating apples on Halloween. As Halloween is approaching the harvest period of apples, caramel apple (toffee apples) have become a seasonal food. The method is to insert the apple directly into the bamboo stick from the pedicle, then hold the bamboo stick and soak the apple in syrup with a layer of sugar coating, sometimes stick nuts, marshmallows, biscuits, popcorn, etc., sometimes add some cinnamon powder to make a delicate snack, and sometimes soak it in chocolate to make it, and then stick colored chocolate rice outside. The sweetness and sweetness of apples go well with the icing on the outside, and children love it! Caramel apples are festival foods from Halloween to Christmas, and they are popular all over the United States.
In the United States, every household will prepare caramel apples for children who come to ask for candy on Halloween. However, it happened that someone put needles and blades in the apples to intentionally hurt others, and the habit of sending caramel apples gradually disappeared. Although most of them are just pranks, and the children in real cases are only slightly injured, many parents are still very uneasy.
There is also a hot apple called Xida. Xida cider is apple juice or cider. This drink is made by heating cider and adding cinnamon, clove and sugar. When heated, the alcohol has almost evaporated. This drink is very popular in Europe and America in winter. It is often drunk at this time from Christmas to spring. The practice is quite similar, that is, the cider is replaced with red wine.
