Halloween

Out of all the holidays, Halloween is the best one. Nothing beats the eerie creepiness one feels when under its time frame in the year. Also, nothing beats the loads of candy obtained for free. Candy is Halloween’s best friend and this is one reason why I love this season. Another reason would be the fun one can have on this night. Haunted houses, being chased with chainsaws, and performing “séances” are a few other reasons. Scary “true” ghost or freaky stories are told and when that is over one, with their little posy of friends, can go scare the kids still trick or treating. Or one can even go steal their candy if the parents aren’t around. Whatever suits one well can relieve some boredom, but usually there is something awesome to do. As I mentioned, Haunted Houses are fun and entertaining. They are very delightful and anyone can obtain great exercise from them. Also, Halloween can be healthy. Being chased by chainsaws and walking for miles while trick or treating is a very good workout. One can burn hundreds of calories on Halloween night. As long as too much candy isn’t eaten, Halloween can prove to be beneficial health wise. Halloween also creates great memories. Most normal people can look back and say Halloween was one of their favorite holidays. All the candy and costumes is one thing, but being able to hang out with their family and friends is another. Just about every kids loves Halloween and the yearly tradition of knocking on their neighbor’s door for candy. It fills them with excitement and satisfaction, knowing what comes out of those big bowls decorated with classic Halloween characters. Overall, Halloween is a great American tradition and I hope it sticks around for as long as it can.
