Have you enjoyed your Halloween?
I know...I'm a little bit late with my "Happy Halloween" but here I am, hope you enjoyed your Halloween!!!
I'm happy to be in a group "for" Halloween, because I really am FOR Halloween! I also bought some pumpkins and decorations for my house, and some witch hats that we used during the party!!
I think that it is worth celebrating Halloween, even if it is something we borrowed from the Anglo-saxon culture, because it is nice, it is a reason to go out and have fun! Moreover, the day after the 31st October is holiday in Europe too, so there's no reason why we should not celebrate it!
However, I can understand adults who do not understand it, because they didn't grow up with this idea of "Halloween" and they don't even know or understand what it is!
Anyway, I think that Halloween will be more and more celebrated in the future, and in a few years it is going to become a European feast too!
Did you know that The term Halloween (and its alternative rendering Hallowe'en) is shortened from All-hallow-even, as it is the eve of "All Hallows' Day", which is now also known as All Saints' Day? (Wikipedia)
That's really interesting! I did't know it!
Trick or Treat?
