It's HALLOWEEN

​It’s HALLOWEEN!
 
Wooooooooooooo It’s a spooky day today as we celebrate Halloween in our group.
 
Our bloggers are going to share with you their take on this annual event and share their thoughts on whether they celebrate the day…
 
Hey everyone and welcome to another spooky edition of my blog. With Halloween fast approaching I thought I would share the origins of this holiday.
 
Despite the majority of people believing that Halloween is American it actually originated in Ireland to celebrate the end of the harvest season. The date is marked with candle lit pumpkins and skeletons (something I think Cindy would look great dressed in costume).
 
Did you know that people are tipped to spend $430 million dollars to celebrate this holiday. Is Halloween too Americanized to be celebrated here? At least one Aussie thinks so.
 
Do you celebrate? And if so…
How?
What’s the best outfit you have seen?
Is it too commercialized? I
s the community spirit still what it once was?
 
Thank you to our readers, I
 
 hope you’re enjoying your newest bloggers entries.  – Ben
 
 
Hi friends how are you? Welcome back to my world of blogging. Today’s topic is Halloween, I chose to write about some of the things I do on that day. I would like to tell you first that Halloween started in the middle ages and is dedicated to remembering the dead including saints. Nowadays people decorate their houses with decorations that you can buy everywhere.


In the older days they used to carve roots vegetables that are called a Jack-O-Lantern it is originally from  turnip and a weird looking vegetable called mangelwurzel that I can’t even pronounce. These days you may see jack-o-lanterns made of pumpkins. 
Trick or treat started in Scotland in the 1920s and a lot of people watch scary movies on that day but I don’t watch them because I have nightmares.  

I bought a Halloween dress on Temu and I do trick or treating with my mum and my sister, and then I like to watch movies that are not scary. 

Thank you for reading my blog have a great rest of your day. Keep on believing, keep on following your dreams.

I love Halloween because I love the scary movies. Like Friday the 13th and Michael Myers and Chucky the doll.
 
I have a Halloween zombie costume for me but it is too small. I will earn money from work for my new costume for Halloween next week. I am going with my mate for Halloween trick-or-treating and will have fun with her kids.
 
Do you celebrate Halloween readers? Yes or no?
Your mate, TJ
 
 
Dear readers, this week's topic is Halloween.
I chose to write about the origin of Halloween.
Readers, I have a question: Do you like Halloween or do you celebrate Halloween?
 
Some interesting facts about Halloween are that it started a long time ago and is celebrated on the 31st of October every year. It was called (All Hallow’s Eve) and now we know it as Halloween night when all souls of the dead return to the living and where they remember the dead and the Saints. It was a Pagan tradition celebrating Scottish and Irish Gaelic and Samhain festivals in Scotland and Ireland which mark the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter.
 
Halloween for me is about being with my family. On that day we dress up, we give out lollies to the little kids, go trick or treating with my friends, and watch a scary movie by myself.
