October 31

ヨーロッパから生まれたお祭りで、あらゆる聖人を記念する祝日「万聖節」の前夜祭である10月31日に開催されます。日本でもイベント化され、盛り上がりますよね！<

A festival that celebrates the autumn harvest and drives away evil spirits.

It originates from a festival held by the ancient Celts, during which people welcomed the spirits of their ancestors and drove away evil spirits.

So as not to be taken away by demons or monsters

On Halloween, it is believed that evil spirits come from the other world. By dressing the same as those spirits, we protect ourselves so that our souls won’t be taken away.

Originally, they used turnips, but in the United States pumpkins were easier to get, so they became widely used. The classic decoration is a hollowed-out pumpkin with a candle inside, called a “jack-o’-lantern.”

It began as a festival of the Celts who lived in Ireland.

Happy Halloween

“Trick or treat” carries the meaning of “choose either a prank or hospitality.” Because of that, some people respond by saying “treat,” which means “hospitality.”

Trick or treat!

When someone says "Trick or treat," you give them sweets so they won't play a prank on you.
