This year's Halloween
Who is still talking about Trick or Treat
Please gather your gaze towards Shanghai
Pumpkin lantern, zombie face, begging for candy
These conventional elements are no longer sufficient for everyone
COSER's imagination has opened up
'Xiangtai' and 'Anlingrong' flew together
Na Ying and Faye Wong dance together
Guan Xiaotong's passionate performance of the representative song "You XX"
It can be said that there are only characters you can't imagine
There is no role they cannot play

The above few are also too vivid
In foreign countries, costume parties Regular Halloween activities

But compared to Shanghai's Huantuo
Overseas celebrities' cosplay
Still focusing on exquisite beauty

Apart from costume parties
University campuses serve as gathering places for young people
Of course, there are also many
Featured Halloween themed activities

HALLOWEEN Mit

Pumpkin Drop

On the evening of October 31st, a group of MIT students dressed in Halloween costumes gathered together to participate in MIT's annual pumpkin competition. This activity involves dropping 100 pumpkins 90 meters from the top of the green building (basement level 21) to the ground of McDermott Court.

These falling pumpkins are all Jack lanterns carved the day before, because carved pumpkins will rot no matter what, so this academic and fun event is also one of MIT's traditional Halloween programs.

Screaming Night Healy Howl

If you are a fan of horror movies, then you are likely to see a classic American horror movie called 'The Exorcist'. What you may not know is that part of this legendary movie was filmed at Georgetown University. Therefore, since 1973, every Halloween has been a gathering place for students at Copley Lawn or Gaston Hall, where the movie is screened.

This movie ends just before midnight in the 'the watching hour', and then the students will go to the local cemetery to continue participating in the remaining Halloween activities. At midnight, they collectively howl at the moon in the cemetery.

Library Scare Fair

If you have read Harry Potter, you will never forget the four ghosts wandering in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It is said that there is also a ghost on the campus of the University of Rochester, known as one of the "New Ivy League", which is the "atmosphere bearer" for Halloween every year. This ghost is said to be Pete Nicosia from the Rush Rhees Library at the school. It is said that he was one of the workers who built this library and fell from the top of the library due to a slip. A few years later, some students said they had seen a figure similar to this worker in the library, basement, and other places, and the terrifying atmosphere immediately filled them up!

HALLOWEEN Yale University

Symphony Orchestra Halloween Performance

As one of the top universities in the United States, Yale University has a very stylish Halloween tradition. The student union of the Yale Symphony Orchestra will write, direct, and act in a silent film. Although the performance is a silent movie (without dialogue), the symphony orchestra will add various background music to the actors to promote the development of the plot.

Some tips about traditional Halloween

Halloween, also known as "Ghost Festival", can be traced back to the ancient Celts. Legend has it that on the last day of October, which marks the end of summer and the beginning of winter, at night, ghosts and spirits will run out of hell and attach themselves to people, bringing disasters and diseases. Therefore, people dress up as ghosts and monsters to scare away these ghosts.

In order to dispel the terrifying atmosphere of Halloween, many children are also dressed up as "cute ghosts coming to ask for candy, shouting the slogan 'trick or treat if you don't give candy'".

With the progress of social civilization, Halloween has evolved into a stage for cosplayers. Nowadays, Halloween is no longer limited to dressing up children as ghosts and playing pranks, but more like a bizarre costume carnival with high participation from all over the world.
