HALLOWEEN.

Halloween is a holiday celebrated around the world, known for its spooky and haunting theme. People often dress up in costumes and decorate their homes with cobwebs and skeletons to celebrate this holiday. It’s a time for thrills and excitement, and what better way to experience this than at an amusement park?

Amusement parks around the world celebrate Halloween by transforming their parks into a terrifying playground. Here we’ll focus on two of the most famous amusement parks in Europe: Moviepark Germany and Europa-Park.

Halloween has its roots in the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, which was celebrated on the night of October 31st. The Celts believed that on this night, the boundary between the living and the dead was blurred, and ghosts and other supernatural beings were able to roam the earth. To ward off these spirits, people would light bonfires and wear costumes to scare away the ghosts. Over time, the holiday evolved and was adopted by Christianity as All Saints’ Day, also known as All Hallows’ Day, which is celebrated on November 1st. The night before became known as All Hallows’ Eve, which eventually became Halloween. Today, Halloween is celebrated around the world and has become a popular holiday for costumes, candy, and spooky fun.
