It’s Halloween
By Jack Prelutsky
It’s Halloween! It’s Halloween!
The moon is full and bright.
And we shall see what can’t be seen
On any other night!
Skeletons and ghosts and ghouls
Grinning goblins fighting duels
Werewolves rising from their tombs,
Witches on their magic brooms.
In masks and gowns we haunt the street
And knock on doors for trick or treat.
Tonight we are the king and queen,
For all tonight it’s Halloween!
(after that comes witch’s dancing)
После этого на сцене танец “ведьмочек”.
Presenter 1.
Good evening, dear guests. Welcome to our party!
In Europe the night of the ghosts and witches was
combined with the Christian holiday. As that night fell on October 31, people
called it Halloween. The word itself, "Halloween," actually has its
origins in the Catholic Church. But, in the 5th century BC, in Celtic Ireland,
summer officially ended on October 31. The holiday was called Samhain (sow-en),
the Celtic New year.
Presenter 2.
On Halloween, people often go to the parties at which
fortunes are read and ghosts stories are told. Children may dress up in the
costumes and masks of witches, goblins or skeletons and go trick – or –
treating. They ring doorbells and ask for candy, apples, or coins.
If they don’t receive a treat, they may play a trick.
Presenter 1.
At night on October 31 witches fly on their broomsticks,
skeletons rattle their bones, ghosts frighten people, Jack – O’ – Lanterns walk
around houses, black Halloween cats play tricks with us.
(Behind the speaker in the back of the stage there
appears a “ghost”, listening to what she says, moves quietly and disappears.)
Presenter 2.
Halloween is one of the oldest celebrations in the world,
dating back over 2000 years to the time of the Celts who lived in Britain
Halloween is also known by other names:
All Hallows Eve
Samhain
All Hallowtide
The Feast of the Dead
The Day of the Dead
When Christianity came to England and the rest of Europe,
1 November became All Saints Day – a day dedicated to all those saints who
didn't have a special day of their own
In Mexico, they celebrate El Dia de los Muertos or the Day of the Dead starting the
evening of October 31.
It is thought that the colours orange and black became
Halloween colours because orange is associated with harvests (Halloween marks
the end of harvest) and black is associated with death.

Halloween
customs today follow many of ancient practices. When children wear costumes,
false faces, or witches’ hats, bob for apples or carry jack-o-lanterns they are
carrying on ancient traditions.
Presenter
2.
Witches
prepared different potions (снадобья) and told magic
spells:
Student
1.
Bubbling, bubbling, bubbling pot
Add some bat wings and then what?
Mix and mix until you’ve got
A new monster ugly and hot.
Bubbling, bubbling, bubbling pot,
Turn a rat into a frog,
Turn a cat into a log,
Bubbling, bubbling, bubbling pot.
Presenter
1:
Well,
now we know that witches fly on their brooms, and what about Jack – O’ –
Lantern?
The
jack-o-lantern, most typical of Halloween symbols, began with the Irish.
According to legend a man named Jack was expelled from Hell for playing tricks
on the devil. He was to walk the earth forever carrying a lantern to light his
way waiting for Judgment Day.
Modern
jack-o-lanterns are made from big orange pumpkins.
Look,
here it is. (Jack – O’ – Lantern appears)
Jack
– O’ – Lantern – Hi
everybody. My name is Jack, you know. I’ve been wandering around the Earth for
hundreds of years. I am so tired. People don’t like me, but I want to talk to
them. I am so glad to have come to your party. One of the ancient traditions on
Halloween was story telling. I know so many interesting stories and I won’t go
until I tell you one of them.
Now
light the candles in your pumpkins, switch off the light and listen to my
story.
(Tells
the story and comes closer to the spectators)
Once
upon a time there lived an old woman. She sat by the fire and she spun waiting
for someone to come. But no one came. Soon there was a knock at the door and
the door opened and in came two big shoes, two long thin legs, some wide, wide
shoulders, some long thin arms, two fat hands and in rolled a pumpkin head.
She looked at someone and said:
Why do you have such big, big shoes?
Much walking, much walking, – said someone.
Why do you have such long thin legs?
Much running, much running.
Why do you have such wide shoulders?
Much carrying, much carrying.
Why do you have such fat, fat hands?
Much working, much working.
Why are you here? What is it you want?
I came to get……….YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Jack
– O’ – Lantern screams, scares students and goes away.)
Presenter
1.
Isn’t
it fun to scare somebody at the Halloween Party!
Well,
one more guest is coming to us.
Old
Lady Witch:
Oh
– ho, I am so tired, my poor legs. They hurt me and want to rest. Oh, can’t
believe my eyes! So many people! Recognize me? I am Old Lady Witch. Well, it is
a good opportunity to tell everybody that I am not so ugly as they think. I
have a big, soft and a warm heart. Don’t be afraid of me. I’ll tell you, girls,
how to see your future husbands on Halloween.
Go
alone into a dark room where there is a looking glass. Eat an apple before it
and at the last mouthful the face of your future husband will be seen peeping
over your shoulder.
If
you peel an apple and throw the parings over the left shoulder look at what
form the peel has taken. It may be the initials of the man you are to marry.
If
you drop two needles into a bowl of water, you can tell by the way they move in
the water whether you and your lover will come together
Well,
that is not enough for today, but I have to go. Good – bye everybody, enjoy
your Halloween and have a good fright.
(Goes
away.)
Presenter
2. – Well, well, well the
time for fun has come. We have a lot here to enjoy. Apples were once thought to
be a link between men and the Gods and were often used to tell the future. By
putting an apple under your pillow you could dream a wish and eat the apple in
the morning. Later people began to use apple in games.
Let’s
play the game “Bobbing for
apples”. Apples are in a bowl of water. Let someone try to catch an apple
with his teeth.
Student
1.
Watch us bobbing for an apple,
For an apple, apple, apple
But no apple, apple, apple
Not an apple can I get.
Oh I cannot catch an apple,
Not one apple, apple, apple,
Though my sister got an apple,
All I got was soaking wet.
Проводится игра “Bobbing for Apples”. По несколько человек от каждой команды с заведенными за спину руками
пытаются с помощью зубов достать из тазика с водой яблоки.
“Pin
the Tail on the Cat”. (Игра – “Прикрепи хвост ослику”.)
1.
Cut out a cat shape from black felt or black cardboard or even paper.
2.
Use fabric paint or glue to add the eyes, nose, and whiskers.
3.
Cut out several tails from black felt or cardboard or paper and sew or glue
them to a hook or pin that can be attached to the cat.
4.
The hook or pin will stick to the felt or cardboard or paper anywhere the
children put it.
“Funny balls”. (Соревнование с воздушными шарами.)
Presenter
1: Now I suggest that you
should guess my riddles. If you give the right answer, you’ll get a little
present.
She always flies on her magic broom,
She always flies around the moon
With a black hat on her head
And what do you think, who is that?
(a witch)
In masks and gowns we haunt the street
And knock on doors for trick or treat
Tonight we are the king and queen
For all tonight is ………..
(Halloween)
I flight at night because I don’t like light. (Bat)
I’m scary and white. I come out at night. Who am I? (Ghost)

(Presenter
2 returns to the scene.)
Trick'O'Treat!
Presenter
1. Now we want to tell you a
few words about trick’o’treating.
Soul
caking
People
wanted to welcome the friendly spirits so they baked special soul cakes for
them. When children came dressed in their costumes on All Hallow's Eve, they
were given soul cakes.
Soul-Cakers
Song
Soul, soul, for a souling cake,
I pray, good missus, a souling cake.
Apple or pear, a plum or a cherry,
Any good thing to make us all merry.
Traditional Celts
The
history of "Trick'O'Treating" can be traced back to the early
celebrations of All Soul's Day in Britain. The poor would go begging and the
housewives would give them special treats called "soulcakes". This
was called "going a-souling", and the "soulers" would
promise to say a prayer for the dead.
Over
time the custom changed and the town's children became the beggars. As they
went from house to house they would be given apples, buns, and money.
Some
people think that this led to asking for treats on Halloween in verses or
rhymes. Such as:
Deal out, Deal out,
The witches are out!
Or:
Trick or treat, you're so neat.
Give me something good to eat.
Nuts and candy, fruit and gum.
I'll go away if you give me some.
Trick
– or – treaters have come to our party either to get treats from you or play
tricks on you. It’s better to accept their mischief in good humor. If you have
a coin, or a sweet, or anything else better give it to them, otherwise…..
(Old
Lady Witch, Jack and others go trick – or – treating).
Presenter
2. And now we’d like you to
listen to some music.
(Young
witch sings a song .)
