Halloween

It was a Halloween party today. Everybody wore costumes at the party. I think it's really an interesting event. Last weekend, I was invited to the host family's dinner, so I told my host father about the party. He told me that some schools in the U.S. cannot have the party at school. Because of religion. He told me that the religion which came from Russia doesn't like Halloween and people who believe in the religion think Halloween is ridiculous, so schools that have students from Russia cannot have a party any more. I thought that most American schools have a party . I think Halloween is fun and interesting culture. However, sometimes people have too much fun on the day. I saw the house which is decorated for Halloween. Something was weird. I saw the house really carefully again, then I saw the doll which doesn't have head and which is bloody. And the door of the house had blood spray. It made me sick. It was too grotesque for me. I thought that it's not good influence for kids. I think it's not usual for me even if it is the day of Halloween, but it's natural for Americans. In Japan, Japanese people hardly have a Halloween party, but recently, some people have it. I read some news about Halloween parties in Japan on the Internet. I heard that some train lines are restrained because of the party. It's interesting. I've never thought that Japanese people hold Halloween party in Japan. Because I've never been to Halloween party there. It was a really interesting experience.
