Halloween is here, so grab the sewing machine, face paints and masks and unleash your creative side. Many people will have been attending Halloween parties throughout the weekend at a variety of commercial properties from bars to theme parks. So what have people been doing to get into the Halloween spirit?
Many people will have been getting ready for the annual event on 31 October, for some time now.
The word, Halloween was first spoken in the 16th century and was a modification from the Scottish word All-Hallows-Even, meaning the night before All Hallows Day. All Hallows Day, also known as All Saints Day is a holy day celebrated by many religions.
During the Halloween festivities, people conventionally get involved in activities, such as: telling frightening stories, trick or treating, dressing up, attending parties, playing practical jokes and watching scary films. As a result of this annual event, a wide range of commercial properties benefit. They include:
