Halloween is a festival that takes place on October 31.
In the United States children wear costumes and masks and go trick-or-treating.
Many of them carve jack-o'-lanterns out of pumpkins.
Fortunetelling and storytelling about ghosts and witches are popular activities.
Trick or treat?
Most jack-o'-lanterns contain a candle inside. An Irish legend says that jack-o'-lanterns are namedafter the man called Jack.
He could not enter heaven because he wasa miser,
and he could not enter hell because he had played jokes on devil.
As a result, Jack has to walk on the earth with his lantern until Judgment Day.
Fortunetelling is an important part of Halloween.
For example, a coin,a ring,and a thimble
were baked into a cake.

The one who found the ringwould marry soon.
And the person who found the thimblewould never get married.
People once believed that there were many ghostsand witches on the Earth
