November 1st every year is Halloween in the West. October 31st is Halloween. Whenever Halloween comes, children can't wait to put on colorful makeup clothes, strange masks, and carry a "Jack's lantern" to ask adults for holiday gifts. These are the two most widely known symbols of Halloween-the bizarre "Jack-lantern" and the "trick-or-treat" prank.
This was my first Halloween in the UK. When I was in Australia in the past, I always stayed with my China classmates, so I didn't feel much about foreign festivals. Although everyone was in a foreign country, they still lived according to the habits of China, and the traditional festivals of China were often celebrated. LG said that Halloween is mainly a holiday for Americans, and the UK is not as big as the United States. Hearing him say this, I naturally didn't take this day too seriously. Unexpectedly, two weeks ago, when I went to the supermarket to shop, I found that special costumes, masks and food for Halloween had been placed on the shelves early, creating a prosperous and lively scene. On Halloween, the staff in the supermarket all dressed up, each wearing a big black cloak and a witch's hat. The supermarket was crowded, and everyone was competing for Halloween food, so they suddenly realized and hurriedly snatched a pumpkin. A few toys and some chocolates and candies to cope with the evening's Trickor Treats.

Steps for Making pumpkin lanterns
1
Pumpkin is 1 yuan, so cheap. I originally wanted to choose a small one, but LG said that it was easy to make a Jack's lantern with a big pumpkin, so I chose one that was several circles bigger than my head.
2
First draw eyes, nose and mouth on the pumpkin. The expression of the pumpkin can be designed by yourself and is eclectic. What we make is a happy jack-lantern, and we plan to make a scary jack-lantern next year.
3
Then dig a hole in the top of the pumpkin. The hole should not be too small and be able to fit your fist.
4
We had to keep the dug cover, but we forgot to keep it and cut it all to make soup...
5
Use a large spoon to scrape away the adhesions and seeds inside the pumpkin.
6
Remove the adhesions inside the pumpkin and the pumpkin seeds.
7
Carve the pumpkin according to the drawn pattern.
8
Place the candle on a small plate and place the plate in the jack-o-lantern.
9
Hang the made jack-o-lanterns in front of your home or in the yard in front of your door.
10
Since we couldn't find the rope, we simply put it on the windowsill. When passers-by saw it, they knew that this house had candy hair.
