Tomorrow is Halloween [1] here in the US and it is celebrated on a huge scale on the 31st of October. People celebrate Halloween [1] with costume parties, where they dress up in all sorts of costumes depicting ghosts, vampires, witches or some sort of famous personalities.

Halloween also kicks off the season for celebrations with big festivals like Thanks Giving Day, Christmas and New Year.

Here is a definition of Halloween [2] from Wikipedia

Halloween, or Hallowe’en, is a holiday celebrated on the night of October 31 [3]. Traditional activities include trick-or-treating [4], Halloween festivals, bonfires [5], costume parties [6], visiting "haunted houses" [7] and viewing horror films [8]. Halloween originated from the Pagan [9] festival Samhain [10], celebrated among the Celts [11] of Ireland [12] and Great Britain [13]. Irish [14] and Scottish [15] immigrants carried versions of the tradition to North America in the nineteenth century. Other western countries embraced the holiday in the late twentieth century. Halloween is now celebrated in several parts of the western world [16], most commonly in Ireland [17], the United States [18], Canada [19], Puerto Rico [20], and the United Kingdom [21].
