Do you know what is
“trick or treat”?
trick or treat
万圣节的主要活动是“不给糖就捣乱”。小孩装扮成各种恐怖样子,逐门逐户按响邻居的门铃,大叫:"Trick or Treat!"(意即不请客就捣乱),主人家(可能同样穿着恐怖服装)便会拿出一些糖果、巧克力或是小礼物。部分家庭甚至使用声音特效和制烟机器营造恐怖气氛。在苏格兰,小孩要糖果时会说:“The sky is blue, the grass is green, may we have our Halloween.”(天是蓝色,草是绿色,齐来庆祝万圣节前夜),然后以唱歌跳舞等表演来博得糖果。
万圣节在每年的10月31日,是西方传统节日。万圣节源自古代凯尔特民族的新年节庆,此时也是祭祀亡魂的时刻,在避免恶灵干扰的同时,也以食物祭拜祖灵及善灵以祈平安渡过严冬。
万圣节前夜起源于与邪恶幽灵相关的庆祝活动,所以骑着扫帚的女巫、幽灵、小妖精和骷髅都是万圣节的标志物。蝙蝠、猫头鹰和其他夜间活动的动物也是万圣节的普遍标志。起初,这些动物让人觉得非常可怕,因为人们认为这些动物能和死者的幽灵进行交流。
Halloween
黑猫也是万圣节的标志物,并且也有一定的宗教起源。人们认为黑猫可以转生,具有预言未来的超能力。在中世纪,人们认为女巫可以变成黑猫,所以人们一看到黑猫就会认为它是女巫假扮的。这些标志物都是万圣节服装的普遍选择,也是贺卡或橱窗上很常用的装饰。
南瓜灯是庆祝万圣节的标志物。传说有一个名叫杰克的人非常吝啬,因而死后不能进入天堂,而且因为他取笑魔鬼也不能进入地狱,所以,他只能提着灯笼四处游荡,直到审判日那天。人们为了在万圣节前夜吓走这些游魂,便用芜菁、甜菜或马铃薯雕刻成可怕的面孔来代表提着灯笼的杰克,这就是南瓜灯的由来。
