The scariest day of the year is here! As we step into cold winter days, and the days turn shorter while nights are longer and colder, it is time to celebrate Halloween. The festival that marks the eve of Western Christian feast of Hallows' Day and All Saints' Day, is celebrated on October 31 every year. It is believed that the departed saints and martyrs return to Earth on Halloween, and people indulge in various activities to ward off the roaming spirits. But what do people do for Halloween? An age-old ritual is observed this day which involves children dressing up in spooky outfits and going door-to-door for Halloween-special sweets. Halloween costume parties are also a rage this day, not just in the west but also in India, which sees partygoers turning up in ghostly outfits and make-up.
