Millions people celebrate Halloween or Hallowmas yearly. Nobody knows the history of the ancient holiday. There are a lot of theories about reason of Halloween and every of it is probable.
People of USA and Great Britain love the holiday. It is the same popular and Christmas or Easter and the cost of Halloween is very high. There are several traditions:
- people wear special dresses;
- houses should be full of scared decorations;
- children go from home to home to get some sweets.
Over time Halloween has lost its religious and mystical parts. Today it is just a show. Dresses become more and more bright and funny, children don’t afraid some horror stories and the origin reason of the holiday is absent. The only tradition is still the same: people decorate their houses with scared and dark elements. According to the history of Halloween, it should be done to scare the evil souls that come into the house that night.

It is usually made of pumpkin, where should be a sinister expression carved. Also traditionally used the following decorations: web imitation, skeletons of people and animals, bats, tombstones and so on.
