Halloween is celebrated on 31st October, a day before the All Saints Day, a holy day for Christians. It is a widely celebrated ritual in the US, with almost 70% of the population planning to participate in the event. It is a holiday filled with fascination, spookiness, superstitions and mystery. Both adults and children, dress up in their best costumes. Children mostly go for princesses, angels and princes. They go door to door for “trick or treat”, expecting their little bags to be filled with candies at the end of the night. On the other hand, the adults go for creepiest costumes like witches, dead people, pirates and many more. They celebrate the night mostly by partying themselves. The houses and yards light up in darker themes and the pumpkins are engraved into jack-o- lanterns.
