I thought I'd take a step back to marvel at our horrifying work, such tremendous times we've had together and still more to come. I remember quite clearly when the witches stood by their cauldrons,putting together their magical spells that turned a prince into a frog, or when the demons and ghouls roamed around trying to find some mischief to cause, oh what a grand sight it was. The marvelous times when the children run around all night, trying to get some yummy treats and all they needed was a single greet. Halloween, our most memorable time together each year, it's the perfect night for everyone, because its always fun and of course very scary! We mustn't forget about all the mischievous ideas that each and everyone of us has come up with.
It is very easy for one to see when the Halloween season arrives, on the number of pumpkins that supermarkets have for sale, spider webs, skeletons, scary carved pumpkins, ghostly figures, bats and black cats are all part of the spooky decorations that go along with the Halloween theme. The decorations of Halloween are designed with the intention to scare people. However, the decorations of Christmas such as ornaments, lights, poinsettias, presents, Christmas trees, reindeers and sleighs are those who bring a sense of joy, happiness and peace to oneself.

The colors that pop out during Halloween are orange and black.
They cross the road to the local candy store full of joy. They see fun in everything. Spending their earned money on sugary delights, they return home to play with the stray dogs and cats.

In Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Burton uses dark and low lighting in the long hallway to show the creepiness of the factory. Once the contestants enter the room of candy in the factory, it is bright and colorful with high key lighting. This cinematic technique gives an effect of cheer yet mystery. You see how it is exciting, but throughout something just does not seem exactly normal. This technique also helps set the tone as delightful.
Candy apples are still associated with Halloween, but few people still serve them. This is because of the wide spread rumors of razor blades being stuck in them. One tradition that has lasted and still has some meaning is the Irish tradition of baking Barmbrack. It is a light fruitcake that a ring is baked into, and whoever gets the ring will meet their true love in the next
A Christmas movie serves as a soundtrack while the tree is twinkling and sparkling in the background. I love making the same traditional Christmas cookies that I have made forever (Pizzelles and Spritz) with people I love..

A cute story to tell around the Christmas tree, but a star-gazed child who spends his/her first few Christmases waiting for Santa (who kind of resembles Uncle Jim) will be immensely disappointed when they discover the true story. The child will eventually be told, or
Everyone easily realizes it is about the event 9/11. Another example is “A Boo Grave” with three kids dressing like they are playing a game in the Halloween which is actually an image of prison abuse in Iraq or “Dear Leader” with a boy posing in front of a carton mushroom-shaped cloud actually is an image of supreme leader Kim Jong Il of North Korea. They introduce the readers to a gallery with visual images and description. He wants to let them see how the kids have taken what they see in life through the media and incorporate it into their play, especially in an exaggerative way. Each of them is so unique to catch people’s attention from the first glance.
It really was quite exquisite though, the sight of children having snowball fights. There was always that feeling of complete childishness that came from having a snowball fight. Who knew if it was from the feeling of cold, melting ice down your clothes, or if it was from the feeling of superiority over all your mates after you had claimed victory?
