1. Story-teller: Hello, everybody! Welcome to our party! ( At the entrance of the hall the Story-teller distributes cards-“bones”, cards-“apples”, cards-“ghosts”, cards-“Jack-o-lanterns” means the possibility to take part in the contests for the audience) And who remembers why we have gatheredhere today? Who knows any legends connected with Halloween? Halloween was first celebrated many centuries ago in Ireland and Scotland by Celtic priests called Druids. They observed the end of autumn and the beginning of winter. The Druids thought that Halloween was the night when the witches came out. As they were afraid of the witches they put on different clothes. The Sun god shared the holiday and received thanks for the year’s harvest. The Druids New Year began on November1, marking the beginning of winter and the reign of the Lord of Death. Halloween customs today, although gay and frolicsome rather than somber, follow many of these ancient practices. When children wear ghost costumes, false faces, bob for apples, eat corn candy or carry jack-o-lanterns, they are carrying on an accumulation of ancient traditions. On Halloween children go from door to door at dusk gleefully calling ”Trick or treat”. Look! Here they are!
