Halloween is the last day of October, which means Halloween.

Halloween, referred to as "Halloween" for short, is a traditional festival in the western world, that is, on October 31th every year, and the celebration is usually in the evening. Mainly popular in the United States, the British Isles, Australia, Canada and New Zealand and other western countries where Saxon descendants gather. That night, children will put on makeup clothes, masks and collect candy from house to house.

Now Halloween has become one of the most popular and popular festivals in a year, and many people celebrate it with great enthusiasm. Halloween is actually a festival to praise autumn, just like May Day is a festival to praise spring. The symbol of Halloween is pumpkin lantern, and there is also a story about pumpkin carving as a lantern. This story originated from ancient Ireland. The story is about a man named Jack, who is a drunk and loves practical jokes.

One day, Jack tricked the devil into climbing a tree, and then carved a cross on the stump, threatening the devil to make him afraid to come down. Then Jack made a pact with the devil to make him get down from the tree on the condition that the devil promised to cast a spell so that Jack would never commit a crime. After Jack's death, his soul can neither go to heaven nor go to hell, so his ghost has to rely on a small candle to guide him to wander between heaven and earth.

Halloween food:

1. Toffee apples:

Toffee apples have become a festive food because Halloween is approaching the harvest period of apples. The method is to insert the apple with a bamboo stick, then hold the bamboo stick and put the apple in the toffee syrup for rotation, and sometimes stick the nuts on it. Once upon a time, families would prepare toffee apples for their children, but when it was rumored that someone put pins and blades in the apples, the habit of giving toffee apples gradually disappeared.

2. Pumpkin pie:

Pumpkin pie is a Halloween food, especially in the United States. Pumpkin pie is a traditional home-cooked snack from late autumn to early winter in the southern United States. It is usually eaten, especially around Halloween, and becomes a kind of food for the occasion. In addition, dried pumpkin seeds are often regarded as Halloween food.

3. Hot apples:

This drink is made by heating cider, adding cinnamon, clove and sugar, and the alcohol has almost evaporated when heated. 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.

4. Candy:

On Halloween, children and teenagers will dress up as ghosts and ask for candy along the street, so all kinds of candy can be regarded as a kind of food for the occasion. At this time, the candy sold in shops is more popular with all kinds of candy in the shape of ghosts and candy packaged in orange, brown or black, which is common on Halloween.
