Halloween Costume

Halloween was perceived as the darkness during which the breaking down between the world of the living and the otherworld was blurred so spirits of the dead and inhabitants from the underworld were able to shlep free on the earth. It was believed de rigueur to dress as a spirit or otherworldly creature when venturing outdoors to blend in, and this is where dressing in such a manner for Halloween comes from. This gradually evolved into trick-or-treating because children would knock on their neighbours' doors, in order to gather fruit, nuts, and sweets for the Halloween festival. Accumulate Halloween Costume was once sprinkled in the hair of the children to protect against evil spirits.
