Greg's Halloween
Monday Well, it's finally October, and there are only thirty days left until Halloween. Halloween is my FAVORITE holiday, even though Mom says I'm getting too old to go trick-or-treating anymore. Halloween is Dad's favorite holiday, too, but for a different reason. On Halloween night, while all the other parents are handing out candy, Dad is hiding in the bushes with a big trash can full of water. And if any teenagers pass by our driveway, he drenches them.
• STEP 3: Carve the pumpkin with knife. • STEP 4: Put an candle in the pumpkin.

Halloween Costumes
Halloween costumes are traditionally those of monsters such as ghosts, skeletons, witches, and devils. Costumes are also based on themes, such as those of characters from television shows, movies and other pop culture icons.
About an hour before we were supposed to start trick-or-treating, I still didn't have a costume. At that point I was seriously thinking about going as a cowboy for the second year in a row. But then Mom knocked at my door and handed me a pirate costume, with an eye patch and a hook and everything.
The origin of Halloween
Halloween, or Hallowe'en, is a holiday celebrated on October 31. It began in Europe and was brought to America by the Irish Catholics. Oct 31 was believed to be a time when spirits roamed around looking for bodies to inhabit. People were superstitious at that time and believed this so much that they would dress up in costumes to disguise themselves to confuse and frighten spirits away and so they would not be selected by the spirits for "posession" of their bodies. Costumes and masks were also worn at the festivals in an attempt to mimic(模仿) the evil spirits or placate(安抚,平息) them.
