Halloween is a holiday in some English-speaking countries which is celebrated on the

night of October 31st. In the USA, as well as in other countries, children
wear costumes and go to people’s homes saying “Trick or treat!” to ask for candy,
which is called sweets in the United Kingdom; that way, people traditionally give it to
them. This practice originally involved a threat. A threat is when someone says that they
will do something bad to you if they do not get what they want. In this case, the threat
could be explained as: “Give me a treat or I will play a trick on you.” Children today
usually do not play tricks if they do not get treats. However, some children still get up to
mischief (pranks or things to make fun of people; like putting toilet paper in trees;
writing on windows with soap or throwing eggs at people’s houses). People sometimes
dress up as ghosts, witches, goblins and other scary things for Halloween. In Brazil, this
day is often celebrated in schools or tv programs for children. - Wikipedia adaptado

A proverb…
“The road to hell is paved with good intentions.”
The road to hell is paved with good intentions means that it is not enough to
simply mean to do well, one must take action to do well.
O caminho para o inferno está pavimentado com boas intenções, o que significa
que não basta simplesmente querer fazer bem, é preciso agir para se fazer bem. ...
A expressão "a estrada para o inferno é pavimentada com boas intenções" foi
publicada pela primeira vez na sua forma actual em Henry G. Bohn's A Hand-
book of Proverbs em 1855.
