Halloween is here again. It is a fun time for both kids and grownups. On Halloween night, many of us dress up in costumes we like and walk around the neighborhood in disguise. Pretty little girls are dressed in ballerina’s tutu. Curious young tots are seen in spider- man suit. And many others are in witch outfits. Like Christmas, many families decorate their houses with orange and black colored cutouts. For the occasion, their houses are protected by spider webs, diving vampires and scary skeletons. The houses also are lit with smiling pumpkins that welcome the neighborhood tricksters. In exchange for peace, the tricksters are treated with many goodies.
On Halloween night, there are people who like to light up firecrackers to rid of evil spirit but not tricksters. There were cases in the past that Halloween celebrations went out of hand and caused severe damages to people, pets and properties. Definitely, we can enjoy Halloween without deafening sounds from flying firecrackers or sacrificing a few live creatures. And it is good to know there are a few changes that help us celebrate Halloween safely. Now firecrackers are not welcome in many neighborhoods. In addition, pet stores and animal shelters do not adopt out black cats during the Halloween season. So no one will get spooked or hurt while others are taking advantage of the occasion to have some good times.
Now let’s enjoy a happy Halloween with great parties, friendly visits and happy goblins. - Ayee
