Halloween

3.

Celtic priests called Druids first celebrated Halloween
many centuries ago in Ireland and Scotland. They observed
the end of autumn and the beginning of winter. The Druids
thought that Halloween was the night when the witches
came out. As they were afraid of the witches they put on
different clothes and painted their faces to deceive the evil
spirits. They also placed food and small gifts near the doors
of their houses for the witches.
• The integral part of the festival was a lantern made
of a pumpkin and people believed that all pumpkins
were leaving their vegetable gardens to dance in the
streets. As time went by, grown-up people lost
interest in Halloween, and it was celebrated mostly
by children.

Let’s read the text
In autumn the British wait for October the 31st . It is
the day when people in Britain and some other Englishspeaking countries celebrate Halloween. It is a very old
tradition. In ancient times people thought that on this day
ghosts and witches are free and you can meet them. In
those days people were afraid of witches and ghosts and
many stayed at home. Now in Britain and the USA it is a
time for fun. There are always a lot of parties on October
the 31st. At these parties people often dress as ghosts and
witches and play games. Some of them make Halloween
lanterns from large pumpkins.
Sometimes children go out into the street, come to
their neighbors' doors and say “Trick or treat”. They usually
get a treat- some chocolate, sweets or nuts.
