But today, it was a different kind of activity that made the District seem both eerie and festive all at once. Sure, it wasn't a fun festive feeling, it was more of a depressing one-- you know, like the get togethers that people have after someone dies and they act like they are enjoying talking about memories and future plans? The heavy, overwhelming feeling that went along with that was just how this day felt every year. School was canceled, work was canceled, businesses were closed for most of the day...…
Halloween is like a horror movie, except with drunk teenagers instead of axe murders. It was about two years ago, when we were still living in Germany.

After about half an hour of us walking around and talking, some acne filled, tall, muscular and older, German teenagers came up to us.…
And then that repeats itself, so it almost seems like there must be some rules that govern that behavior. As my adventure drew to a close, I thought, how appropriate that it should end on Halloween? After all, this is the day when people like to suspend their beliefs in the physical laws that govern our world. Spirits awaken from the dead.…

Halloween was extremely limited in colonial New England because of the rigid Protestant belief systems there. However, in the southern colonies, Halloween was more common since the beliefs and customs of European and Native Americans merged to what the American version of Halloween became. Soon, in the mid-1800s, immigrants from Ireland and Scotland brought their traditions that helped shape Halloween, including such traditions as bobbing for apples, telling ghost stories, and the early version of trick or treat which included people dressing up in costumes and going to house to house asking for food or money. By the late 1800s, the early version of Halloween was more about community and neighborly get-togethers than about ghosts, pranks, and witchcraft.…

H is for Halloween Halloween was in three days, and I still hadn't decided what I was going to wear. Normally you would think that 12 is a little old to go trick or treating, but we wanted to go, just one last time. My friends and I had gathered together to come up with ideas on what to be, and all decided we wanted to be superheroes. We had decided on making them ourselves and to all meet at Walmart the next day.…
