Why are costumes worn on Halloween? |
Answer
To scare evil spirits back into their graves. Halloween is when the ghosts/spirits wake up and are allowed to roam the earth, costumes scare them away. It was once known as All Hallows Eve. Nowadays we dress up because Halloween has been changed by the candy companies in order to get more money.
