The tradition of celebrating Halloween came to us from the ancient Celts. They believed that every year, on October 31, the souls of the dead leave the afterlife for one night. The Celts figured out how to deceive evil spirits. You need to become as scary, sing and dance loudly. Now the holiday is popular all over the world. A Halloween party is a great way to experience interesting traditions and have fun.
Instructions
Step 1
Decorate the room. Since the evil spirits live in the dark, use simple methods to give the room a mysterious and a little scary look. Hang up glowing garlands, place scarecrows made from old things, create twilight, light candles. The atmosphere will be suitable for the holiday.
Step 2
Prepare your costume. Please inform guests in advance that there will be a competition at the party. The winner of the best costume will receive a prize. For example, a huge pumpkin for carving Jack's lantern. You can make a Halloween costume yourself or buy one you like in the store.
Step 3
Paint some scary makeup. Images of zombies, various scars, bruises, and blood spots are popular on Halloween. If you don't have special paints at hand, ordinary watercolors applied over foundation are perfect.
Step 4
Don't forget the treat. Chocolate or caramelized apples are considered traditional Halloween dishes. Invite your guests to bring something tasty with them. Don't cook too much, as this is not a New Year's feast. The main thing is that the food should correspond to the theme of the holiday.
Step 5
Pick up dance music. Many centuries ago, during Halloween, it was customary to sing loudly, dancing ritual dances. So people drove away the evil spirits that woke up on a festive night. Do not deny yourself this pleasure, dance and have fun.
Step 6
Have a real Celtic divination. To find out the name of the betrothed, the girl must cut the longest skin from the apple and throw it over her left shoulder. See what letter the fallen peel looks like. With her, according to ancient beliefs, the name of the groom will begin.
