Halloween is a date celebrated on the night of October 31 st. Its celebration is most practised in the United States and Canada. Children wear costumes and they go to peoples' homes saying „Trick or treat!" to ask for candy, sweets in the Untied Kingdom, or lollies in Austraila, and then people give it to them. This practice originally involved a threat. A threat is when someone says that they will do something bad if they do not get what they want. In this case the threat could be explained as: "Give me a treat or I will play a trick on you."

A vampire is a mythical being who subsists by feeding on the life essence (generally in the form of blood) of living creatures. In folkloric tales, undead vampires often visited loved ones and caused mischief or deaths.

GHOSTS

In traditional belief and fiction a ghost (sometimes known as a spectre (British English) or specter (American English), phantom, apparition or spook) is the soul or spirit of a dead person or animal that can appear, in visible form or other manifestation, to the living.
