In order to celebrate Halloween, children will dress up as cute ghosts and knock on doors to ask for candy, otherwise they will be naughty. At the same time, it is said that on this night, all kinds of ghosts will dress up as children and mingle with the masses to celebrate the arrival of Halloween, while human beings dress up as ghosts to make ghosts more harmonious.
Halloween is mainly popular in the English-speaking world, such as the British Isles and North America, followed by Australia and New Zealand. Nowadays, the younger generation in some Asian countries also tend to celebrate foreign festivals. On Halloween, some large foreign supermarkets will set up counters to sell Halloween toys, and small vendors will also sell some dolls or models related to Halloween to attract young people's attention.
The origin of Halloween:
More than two thousand years ago, Christian churches in Europe designated 1 65438+1October1as all saints' day in the world, and Hallow means saint. Legend has it that since 500 BC, Celts living in Ireland, Scotland and other places have moved this festival forward by one day, that is, 65438+1October 3 1. 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 severe winter. At that time, people believed that the spirits of the dead would return to their former residence on this day to find all beings and regenerate.
Living people are afraid of the ghost of the dead to take life, so people put out the fire and candlelight on this day, so that the ghost of the dead can't find the living people. They dress up as monsters to scare away the ghost of the dead. After that, they will rekindle bonfires and candlelight and start a new year's life.
