• Halloween is the western goast festival ,maybe you will enjoy it this year ,thank you all.
History traces Halloween back to the ancient religion of the Celtics(凯 尔特人). .
• On the 1st of November, • Old Celtic peoples celebrated the festival of Samhain, which marked the beginning of winter and the Celtic New Year（just like our Spring Festival）.
• They made a big ruckus around the neighborhood hoping that the ghosts would leave in peace before midnight of the new year
• Some would also go from house to house, begging for "soul cakes". • In return they promised to pray for dead members of the donors' families. That's the origin of trick or treat.
