Trick or Treat?
Reveal Your Hauntingly Perfect Costume

           

          Abracadabra! It is time to look for the Halloween dress idea for welcoming this haunting night. Halloween is the festival where people usually go hanging out with fantasy, spooky dresses and frightful Halloween makeup to match the mood and add excitement to Halloween day. Before we start preparing our outfits or packing our bags for the Halloween getaway, King Power Online has some stories that tell you why we actually dress up as spooky creatures on this festive night.

 

What is Hall🎃ween? Why do we have to dress like ghosts?

           The 31st of October every year is Halloween, which is the day that most people adorn their homes or any place with haunting decorations like a devil pumpkin or spider webs, as well as dress in a Halloween outfit and put on scary makeup. The origin of these activities was from the Samhain festival of the Celts, who believed that the door separating the spirit’s world and the human’s world would open on this day, and ghosts could cross the door to mankind's world. Thus, the Celts had to dress like ghosts to protect themselves from wicked spirits by blending in with the ghosts; that is why wearing a Halloween dress became the iconic symbol of this famous event.


           If we had to come up with a new idea for Halloween makeup and outfits every year, you might get a headache. Would it be better if we took some funny quizzes to discover the perfect Halloween look that suits you? Then, you can use the results you got to inspire your Halloween dress. Ready to find out?
