👻 What’s So Special About Halloween?

Halloween is celebrated on October 31st in many countries, especially in the United States, Canada, and parts of Europe. It’s a night filled with costumes, haunted houses, trick-or-treating, and storytelling. But it’s also a great time to:

• Learn new vocabulary like pumpkin, vampire, and costume

• Practice past-tense storytelling

• Explore idioms like “scared stiff” and “skeleton in the closet”

• Discover cultural traditions like Día de los Muertos in Mexico

Did you know that some Halloween customs come from ancient Celtic festivals? Or that many Halloween words are perfect for building your descriptive writing skills?
