About Halloween
Halloween falls on the evening before All Saints’ Day. It’s celebrated with costumes, trick-or-treating, carved pumpkins, spooky decorations and scary films.
Its roots reach back to the Celtic festival of Samhain, which marked the end of the harvest and the start of winter.
Make the wait part of the fun
- Decide on your costume early, so there’s time to make it rather than buy it.
- Plan a pumpkin-carving evening for the week before.
- Line up a scary film for each night of the last week of October.
