Preparing for Halloween: Costume book "DIY"

On the night of October 31 to November 1 is celebrated holiday of Halloween, which is rooted in the traditions of the ancient Celts. Though the ancient holiday and absolutely not Slavic, we gladly took over from Western culture (as well as February 14). This is another reason to get together with friends and have some fun in full force. A sort of extra bias in Carnival with horror.

A bit of history of the holiday:

Halloween (Eng. Halloween, All Hallows 'Eve, or All Saints' Eve) - a holiday that has its roots in the traditions of the ancient Celts, whose history began in the lands of modern Britain and northern France; celebrated on the night of 31 October to 1 November. Also referred to as "Halloween." Traditionally celebrated in English-speaking countries, although the official holiday or a public holiday is not.

Where did the pumpkin?

One of the main attributes of a holiday is a "jack-o'-lantern" (eng. jack-o'-lantern) in the form of a head of a carved pumpkin illuminated.

The appearance of this symbol is most often associated with an Irish legend about a man named Jack, an old farmer, gamblers and spirits. He has twice cheated the devil, but did not get any paradise after death - because of his vicious life, or hell - because the devil still lives with Jack vowed not to take his soul. He was doomed to wander the world with a pumpkin head with embers inside her.
