When we went to Boston, we were lucky because it was the week before Halloween. We saw a lot of houses decorated with ghosts, witches, pumpkins, skeletons… it was so funny!
Halloween, in the USA, is more important than in France, it’s a time when people organize many activities. For example, in Foxborough, there was a haunted house. Our penfriends took us there the first night- it was the Saturday when we arrived. Voluntaries dress up and enjoy frightening visitors.
The place where Halloween is the most important is at Salem. It’s like the capital of Halloween because this city is marked by its history. In fact there was a big witch-hunt there in the seventeenth century. There were trials and women were charged with witchcraft and they were hung . Now Salem plays with its history to attract tourists. There are a lot of witch museums , witchcraft shops… we went to Salem and we saw many people who walked in the streets being dressed up, it was funny!
