Halloween, one of the most beloved festivals in Western cultures, is famous for its lively and scary traditions that bring joy to both children and adults. From dressing up in creative costumes to carving pumpkins into jack-o’-lanterns, each custom carries a unique history and meaning. Among these well-known traditions, three stand out as the most classic ones — loved by people across generations and still widely celebrated today.
Trick or treat
Trick or treat is the practice of pulling usually harmless jokes if treats are not given. Trick-or-treaters go from house to house with the threat that they will pull a trick if they do not receive a treat, usually candy. According to Scottish accounts, this practice evolved from All Souls’ Day, when children and poor adults would collect food and money from local homes in return for prayers for the dead. Later, when the festival became secular, this practice of prayers for the dead was replaced by tricks, songs, and jokes.
Bobbing for apples
Halloween parties often include games such as bobbing for apples, perhaps originating from Roman traditions related to Pomona. In this game, apples float in a tub or other container of water, and players try to catch one with their teeth, without using their hands.
Avoiding a black cat’s path
Among the most popular animals associated with Halloween, black cats have perhaps the most notorious reputation. One of the most retold old Halloween beliefs warns against letting a black cat cross one’s path. This belief dates back to medieval Europe, when folklore held that witches or even the Devil could be disguised as black cats. People started believing that bad luck would happen to them if a black cat ran across their path. This thought travelled to North America with European colonists and strengthened black cats’ scary reputation.
These three traditions are more than just fun activities. They carry the history of different cultures. Today, they still play a key role in making Halloween a festival full of laughter, excitement, and a touch of mystery.
