AUDIO TRANSCRIPT
Narrator: Halloween is a contraction of All Hallows’ Eve. It is a yearly celebration observed in a number of countries on October 31st, the eve of a Western Christian feast. It marks the beginning of the time of year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows) and martyrs. According to many scholars, All Hallows’ Eve was initially influenced by Celtic festivals, and it has possible pagan roots. Other academics maintain that it has solely Christian roots. Typical festive Halloween activities include trick-or-treating, attending costume parties, decorating, making pumpkins into Jack O’Lanterns, lighting bonfires, dressing up in skeleton or ghost costumes, playing pranks, telling scary stories, and watching horror films.
