Halloween in England
Nowadays, people celebrate Halloween by dressing up in a
variety of costumes and going ‘trick-or-treating’. This involves knocking on people’s doors and collecting chocolate and sweets in return for no tricks.
In the United Kingdom, Halloween is a time for costumes and games.
When wearing their outfits, people like to have fun and scare each other.
Many people carve pumpkins in a variety of different patterns.
In the past, on All Souls’ Eve (All Hallow’s Eve), families would stay up late and little “soul cakes” were eaten.
