Have you ever wondered what different celebrations there are during halloween? And what kids do there? Well I have so I decided to do a little research on it!

Austria - In Austria families leave bread and water on a table with a lamp next to it. This is supposed to help greet and beckon dead souls back to Earth on such a spiritual night.

Spain - In Spain children go trick or treating and eat a pastry called Bones of the Holy. It is covered in an orange glaze and has anise seed in it. Afterwards families go to cemeteries to visit dead family members and they stay there throughout the night. The next day families clean the deceased burial plots. 

Japan - In Japan water and food is put in front of a photo of a deceased friend or family member, then lanterns are lit and set floating in water or next to a body of water to light the ghosts to Earth and to show them where their family & friends are. It is called the Obon Festival.

Germany - In Germany households put away knives and other harmful objects on Halloween night, so that the ghosts coming back to Earth will not accidentally hurt themselves during celebrations. Cemeteries are cleaned and wreaths and lanterns are placed at family grave sites.
