De naam "Halloween" is afgeleid van Hallow-e'en, of All Hallows Eve (Allerheiligenavond, 1 november).
Op 31 oktober verkleden kinderen zich om mensen een beetje bang te maken en bellen als het donker wordt in de buurt aan bij huizen die versierd zijn met pompoenen en lichtjes. Ze roepen trick or treat. Ze geven de bewoner dus de keuze tussen een traktatie (treat) of een streek uithalen (trick). Dat levert meestal wel snoep op.
In sommige regio’s gebeurden zo’n strooptocht met Oudejaarsavond, Driekoningen of Sint-Maarten. Maar door TV, globalisering en commercie lijkt Halloween het met griezeltochten en –fuiven te halen.
Skelet bij de diëtist: "Ik rammel steeds van de honger"
Een skelet komt een café binnen en zegt: "Doe mij maar een pilsje en een dweil."
Het spookt hier? Onzin. Niets gemerkt, en ik woon hier al meer dan 500 jaar.

2 spoken horen gekraak op de trap. “Wat eng.” “Geloof jij in mensen?”
Wie is leuker een vampier of een spook? Een spook, want dat is geestig.
Hoe opent een skelet een deur? Met zijn sleutelbeen.
Waarom vliegt een heks op een bezem? Omdat een stofzuiger te zwaar is.
