Halloween is full of ghosts, fears, and things related to death, magic, and monsters. Things commonly associated with Halloween include pumpkins, ghosts, ghouls, witches, bats, black cats, owls, elves, zombies, skeletons and demons, as well as fictional characters such as vampires and Frankenstein. And black and orange are the traditional colors of Halloween. Modern Halloween products also make heavy use of purple, green, and red. Autumn elements such as pumpkins and scarecrows have also become symbols of Halloween.
The Jack-o'-lantern (English: Jack-o'-lantern) is the most famous symbol of Halloween. In Britain and Ireland, locals use hollowed out radish or beetroots to light candles to make jack-o-lanterns. Later, people who immigrated to the United States changed the carved pumpkins originally used to celebrate the harvest into jack-o-lanterns because the pumpkins were larger and easier to carve patterns. Many families carve pumpkins into ghost faces and place them at their doorsteps to ward off evil spirits and monsters.
