attire, time of year, and the emotional atmosphere of the two events, all play into effect on both nights. Halloween is a night where kids of all ages get to be whatever they desire. Goblins, superheroes, witches, and ghosts are among some of the costumes worn on Halloween. Prom, however, is a night where teenagers get to dress like young adults, wearing ball gowns and tuxedos. While each night requires a different dress code, both allow the individual to enter into a different reality.…
