2. Halloween Story 2: Apple Tree &; jack-o'-lantern

Halloween is celebrated on 1 1 month 1 day every year and is called Halloween. It used to be called Halloween MAS, but the same root Halloween is louder, and it has been used until now, meaning Halloween, that is, the night of1October 3 1 day. Around the 5th century BC, Irish Celts began to celebrate their Halloween every year on1October 3 1 day, that is, at the end of summer, to express the joy of harvest and worship of the sun. Interestingly, the Celts have a Halloween saying similar to the reincarnation of Buddhism. They believe that at the turn of the new year and the old year, that is, on the night of1October 3 1 Sunday, ghosts will appear in the afterlife, looking for body double to get a new life. On Halloween, the Celts did not worship the Kitchen God and asked his old man to put in a good word in heaven. Instead, they used a severe means of "making foreign countries control foreign countries" to deal with ghosts. In order to drive away ghosts, people will put out the fire at home on Halloween night, create a cold and gloomy environment, dress up as ghosts and scream loudly. Even if we can't scare away ghosts, we should make them confused about who is alive and who is a ghost, so that we can't find the body of body double.

Such a horrible Halloween has evolved into the most enjoyable Halloween today, and history has played a kind joke on us again. This day is the most exciting day for foreign children in a year. On Halloween morning, when children go to school, they bring clothes and candy to attend the Halloween party organized by the school. Children decorate their own venues and environments. Orange, black and white are the traditional decorative themes of Halloween. Orange pumpkin lanterns, black cats, spiders and witches, white cobwebs and skeletons are all essential characters for Halloween. Children dressed as witches and pirates perform Halloween games in dim orange light. The most popular Halloween game is "bite the apple". Apples are either hanging in the air or floating in a basin full of water. Children bite apples with their mouths instead of their hands. Whoever bites first wins. This traditional Halloween program may be traced back to the Roman custom of celebrating the harvest with nuts and apples.

Among the dazzling decorations on Halloween, the most creative one is the Halloween pumpkin lantern. Ghost fire is called Halloween in English. When making pumpkins, hollow out the pumpkins, carve eyes and mouth with a knife, and insert candles in them to make them look ferocious. There are many versions of the legend about Halloween jack-o'-lantern, and the most popular one is "tricking the devil into sixpence". Many Halloween begins like this: Legend has it that there is a man named StingyJack in Ireland. In fact, "astingydrunkardJack" should have been translated into "a stingy alcoholic Jack", but it was ignored by the original translator as "a man named StingyJack". Later, it was rumored that cheapskate became a name that Jack couldn't get rid of.

Another version of "Apple Tree" is also famous for Halloween: the stingy Irish drunkard Jack tricked the devil into climbing into the hole in the apple tree, and then quickly carved a sacred cross on the trunk to trap the devil. Jack forced the devil to swear that he would never pursue or find his soul in any other way before he let the devil out. However, this does not stop the coming of death. After Jack's death, he was forbidden to enter heaven because of drunkenness, meanness and fraud. Jack can't go to hell because of the devil's oath. "Then where should I go?" Jack asked at a loss. "Go back where you came from!" The devil replied savagely. The road back was cold and dark. The devil picked up a burning charcoal from the fire of hell and threw it to him. In order to walk along the road without being blown away by the wind, Jack put charcoal in the turnip in his hand. Jack just took his lantern to find his place on the earth. Later, the Scots imitated him on Halloween, hollowing out kohlrabi and putting candles to make lanterns; Irish people use potatoes or kohlrabi on Halloween; However, on Halloween, the British use beets. Later, they immigrated to America and found a better lantern-Halloween pumpkin lantern! This Halloween story actually tells people not to make a deal with the devil under any circumstances.
