All Hallows Eve, Halloweengoes back 2,000 years to Ireland, where people celebrated the start of winter. Many people thought that witches and ghosts walked in the streets that night playing tricks on people. To celebrate this, the Irish traded sweet food and dressed up like ghosts.Even today, 2,000 years later, the tradition of wearing a costume and trick-or-treating is still a popular custom. Although this holiday is fun for kids-and great for collecting candy-there are many people who believe that bad luck happens on Halloween. I remember one Halloween when it snowed almost 90 centimeters in one night! The storm was not expected and people said that the ghost of Halloween were coming back to haunt us.The haunting is probably not true, but the snowstorm was definitely bad luck. All of the trick-or-treaters ended up wearing winter jackets and snow boots instead of costumes! Whether you believe in bad luck is up to you, but many scary things usually happen on Halloween.This spooky night has always been known for being full of surprises. So this year, be careful and watch out for signs of bad luckit just might be a Halloween ghost or witch coming back to haunt you!1. When did the tradition of Halloween start? .2.
