A Holiday in October

• Halloween is
celebrated on
October 31st.

• Many other
countries in Europe
and around the
world celebrate
Halloween
• Halloween
comes from the
Celtic tradition.
They believed
the spirits of
dead people
come alive!
• Many families carve pumpkins
together. They cut a face in the
pumpkin with a knife. They put a candle
in the pumpkin to make it light up.
• This is called a Jack-o-lantern.
They put the Jack-o-lantern in a
window so everybody can see it.
• Many people
also dress up in
costumes.

• Costumes can
be scary or
funny.
• Children “Trick-or-
Treat” in their
Halloween
Costumes

They go to a door
and knock.
When it opens they
scream,
TRICK OR TREAT!
Sometimes they say;

TRICK OR TREAT
SMELL MY FEET
GIVE ME SOMETHING
GOOD TO EAT!

They get candies from

each
House or apartment!
