Halloween Celebrations In the USA 2023
Halloween is one of the oldest and most popular holidays in the United States. It is a time of year when people dress up in costumes, go to parties, and — most importantly — eat candy! Halloween has its roots in the Celtic festival of Samhain. This was a time when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off evil spirits. The tradition was brought to America by Irish and Scottish immigrants in the 19th century.
