I know little about the traditions of today.

What's 'Halloween'? How do people get ready for it?

[google offered him very little that he found useful.]

What are you, an idiot?

[hakingitup]

Weren't you going to show me Shinki magic.

[justclaws]

I am afraid to say I have absolutely no idea.

[hakingitup]

From what I can tell, it's supposed to be spooky.

Want to help?

[justclaws]

What exactly are you planning?

[hakingitup]

Something spooky.

oh that's that western holiday right?

I think you're supposed to wear costumes and party! And hand out candy too. Maybe cake? I know there's something with pumpkins and cake is great.

[hakingitup]

Pumpkins and cake? That's not what I've seen.

Is cake important?

[will he need a cake]

[sweetdeath]

Cake is ALWAYS important.

I'm pretty sure about the pumpkins, though! Pumpkins with faces.

It's a holiday that's, these days, a time when people dress up in costumes and kids walk door to door going trick-or-treating. A lot of adults or teens go to parties. I don't really know how it's celebrated here in Japan though.

[hakingitup]

We didn't celebrate it back home either. I've heard about a haunted house. Know anything about that?

[smilingbullet]

A haunted house is a house that is haunted by ghosts or other spirits. Alternatively, it's an attraction where people go to get scared or surprised by horror-themed things in the dark.

It's a holiday that steams from the fall harvest season along with religious celebrations at the time. Once referred to as All Hallows Eve before becoming Halloween.

[hakingitup]

Huh. I understand the harvest part at least. Doesn't seem like much harvesting is going on now, though.

[alchemists]

Well in recent times it's more of a holiday to dress up and get treats instead of celebrating a harvest.

It sounds a lot like a holiday from home called the Festival of Bonds. Everyone dresses up in costumes and has a party to celebrate the autumn harvest.

From: Ler

[hakingitup]

That sounds like something from home, the harvest part at least. But the costumes, not really.

What kind of costumes?

[clothes_make_the_man]

All kinds, really. Monster costumes are the most popular, though.
