Halloween, a Western festival widely celebrated across the United States, Canada, and Britain, is observed annually on October 31 as a non-religious occasion. The day is believed to blur the line between the world of the living and the dead.
In contemporary times, Halloween has gained global popularity through Western media and cultural influence, bringing with it festive excitement. Just as Holi, once limited to certain regions of India, spread nationwide for its colorful and joyous traditions, Halloween too has found its place in Indian celebrations due to its vibrant rituals.
