求Halloween story

One very spooky Halloween a little

boy and his friends went out for

a fun night of trick-or-treating.

Little did they know, it would be

a night they would not soon forget!!!

At first everything was great. They were getting lots

of candy as they went from house to house.

They passed other trick-or-treaters along the way.

They saw funny costumes and scary costumes. They

were having a really fun time. But then...

they saw a house. A house they hadn't been to before.

It was a very spooky looking house. Being young and

brave, they decided to go up to the door and knock.

After all, scary houses might have the best candy!

As they walked up the long winding path they saw...

Maybe they should turn back. But the little boy, being very brave, just had to see what was in that house. So on they went. Not deterred by the things they heard or saw. As they slowly worked their way up to the door...

They imagined what might be inside.

Maybe a witchor a maybe a ghost.But they weren't prepared for what came to the door...

They were so scared they couldn't move! What were they to do?

And the big scary monster, much to the kids surprise, reached inside and brought out a huge bowl of the best kinds of candy they had seen all night. Wow, the kids thought, this is great! It turned out that the house was decorated for halloween, and the big scary monster just had on a costume like the kids did. Since they were the only kids brave enough to go to the haunted house, they got to take as much candy as they wanted. What a way to end a great night of Halloween fun

Halloween is a tradition celebrated on the night of October 31, most notably by children dressing in costumes and going door-to-door collecting sweets. It is celebrated in parts of the Western world, though most commonly in the United States, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Puerto Rico, and with increasing popularity in Australia and New Zealand. Halloween originated among the Celts in Ireland, Britain and France[1] as the Pagan Celtic harvest festival, Samhain. Irish, Scots, Calan Gaeaf in Welsh and other immigrants brought versions of the traditions to North America in the 19th century. Most other Western countries have embraced Halloween as a part of American pop culture in the late 20th century.

The term Halloween, and its older spelling Hallowe'en, is shortened from All-hallow-even, as it is the evening before "All Hallows' Day"[2] (also known as "All Saints' Day"). In Ireland, the name was All Hallows' Eve (often shortened to Hallow Eve), and though seldom used today, it is still a well-accepted label. The holiday was a day of religious festivities in various northern European Pagan traditions, until Pope Gregory III moved the old Christian feast of All Saints Day to November 1 to give Halloween a Christian interpretation . Halloween is also called Pooky Night in some parts of Ireland, presumably named after the púca, a mischievous spirit.

What I know from Halloween

In the US, American kids always go to trick or treating. They always dressed up as a witch, princess, whatever character they want to. They will be get together with ttheir friends and go to every houses to get candy. Usually people give out chocolate bars, milky way, lifesavers, and other kinds of hard candy & soft candy. In some places (like where I lived), those bad kids will throw those rotten eggs, obviously its not good.
And family will put a pum*****in outside their house
