Halloween Special - 1

It is a traditional holiday in the West - Halloween, but Halloween has spread to the present day, has faded the religious color, but has become a festival for children, but also a festival for young masquerade. Let's take a look at how these countries celebrate Halloween.

Britain is the origin of Halloween, so the British holiday atmosphere will be very strong. Every year from the end of October, you can feel the festive atmosphere in the streets of London. During the Halloween period, the sections of central London are blocked and used as venues for festivals. A lot of past torture scenes will be restored near the Tower of London, and people will feel the chill when they are visiting. The biggest nightclub in London will be held on the evening of October 31st for a Halloween party. There will also be activities such as the Ghost Theater and the Ghost Fashion Show on the street to invite visitors to interact.

In 1840, Halloween was introduced to the United States. Since then, every year in New York City on the eve of Halloween, there will be a parade. You will see a group of vampires, zombies, witches, Frankenstein and other monsters parading in the street. Age, gender, and regardless of nationality, it attracts thousands of New Yorkers and tourists every year to participate in this "Ghost Carnival." The most interesting thing is that the Hollywood stars will also make the housekeeping skills to dress up and mix into the crowd. Every Halloween store sells ghost-shaped food, candy, clothing and masks.

Since the pumpkin lantern is a symbol of Halloween, every household will buy a lot of pumpkins to make pumpkin lanterns and compete in the pumpkin lanterns. At the end of the night, the famous "No Sugar, Trick or Treat" activity began, which is also the favorite activity of the children. Children will carry sugar from house to house with pumpkin lanterns. If the owner does not give sugar, the child will create trouble for the owner in various ways, such as throwing rubbish at the door of the owner's house or stepping on the pumpkin at the door of the owner.

Halloween in Canada is also very special, but Canadians will hold a pumpkin festival before Halloween. People will buy pumpkins in large quantities and go back to make many unique pumpkin pies, pumpkin cakes or other local specialties. At the Pumpkin Festival, Canadians will also hold a pumpkin contest to select the biggest pumpkin of the year. After that, they will make huge pumpkins into sculptures, and they can also make boats and rowing competitions. On the night of Halloween, the Canadians will dress up in a terrible way, hoping to scare away the "ghost." No matter adults or children, as long as they are disguised as "ghosts", they can go door-to-door to ask for sugar, and some politicians will also share the joy with the people and come out to give sugar to adults and children.

However, French Halloween refers to the traditional Catholic festival la Toussaint. Although the days are the same, the customs are quite different. In France, Halloween is actually equivalent to China's Ching Ming Festival. It is a festival for the dead to sweep the tomb and pay homage to the ancestors. On the first day of November, France will have a holiday, the students will have a long vacation, young people will occasionally organize makeup ladders, and the children will also knock on the sugar to the neighbors, but overall, and It doesn't have a strong decorative atmosphere like the US.

The above is just a few countries listed, and it has been developed so far, not only in Western countries, but also more and more young people from the East have participated in the Halloween carnival. In short. Halloween will become more and more a world of carnival. Do you have any plans for the upcoming Halloween?
