2.  ИСТОРИЯ  ВОЗНИКНОВЕНИЯ ПРАЗДНИКА (Презентация 2)

Now Artyom would like to tell you about this holiday.

Many centuries ago Celts lived on the British islands, where now you can see Ireland and Scotland, and on the 1st of November they celebrated the Holly Day (День Всех Святых).

They believed that on the Eve (канун) at night witches, vampires, wicked magicians could do everything with people. People locked doors and shut windows and never went out at night.

Nowadays on the 31st of October people celebrate a merry holiday - Halloween.

In the evening children put on funny costumes of witches, skeletons, ghosts, vampires and pirates, dance and play games. They go from house to house and say "trick-o-treat!". And people give them candies and fruits.

And now Vicky is going to tell you an old legend about Jack-o'-lantern.(Презентация 2)

Jack was a miserable, old drunk who took pleasure in playing tricks on his family, friends, his mother and even the Devil himself. One day, he tricked the Devil into climbing up an apple tree. After the Devil climbed up the tree, Jack put crosses around the tree. The Devil was stuck in the tree because he couldn`t touch the crosses.  Jack made the Devil promise him not to take his soul when he died. Once the devil promised not to take his soul, Stingy Jack removed the crosses, and the Devil climbed down out of the apple tree.

Many years later, Jack died, he went to the pearly gates of Heaven and was told by Saint Peter that he was mean and cruel, and had led a miserable, worthless life on earth. Stingy Jack was not allowed to enter heaven. He went down to Hell and the Devil. The Devil kept his promise and would not allow him to enter Hell. Now Jack was scared . He had nowhere to go, but to wander about forever in the dark between heaven and hell. He asked the Devil how he could leave, as there was no light. The Devil gave him an ember from the flames of Hell, to help Jack light his way. Jack had a Turnip with him. Jack hollowed out the Turnip, and placed the ember the Devil had given him, inside the turnip. From that day  Jack roamed the earth without a resting place, lighting his way as he went with his "Jack O'Lantern".
