<strong>GiftWorksPlus</strong> <strong>Releases</strong> <strong>Interesting</strong> <strong>Halloween</strong><br />
<strong>Facts</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Figures</strong><br />

Waukesha, WI, USA -- <strong>Halloween</strong> is synonymous with c<strong>and</strong>y, ghosts, pumpkins <strong>and</strong> costumes. In honor<br />
of <strong>Halloween</strong>, <strong>GiftWorksPlus</strong> is releasing some fun facts <strong>and</strong> figures about the holiday to get customers in<br />
the <strong>Halloween</strong> spirit.<br />
The origins of <strong>Halloween</strong> are thought to be linked to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, in which people<br />
would light bonfires <strong>and</strong> wear costumes to scare off ghosts. When Pope Gregory III named the first of<br />
November All Saints' Day in the 8th century, some of the Celtic traditions were incorporated into the<br />
holiday. The night before All Saints' Day became known as All Hallows' Eve <strong>and</strong>, eventually, <strong>Halloween</strong>.<br />
Wearing <strong>Halloween</strong> costumes also has its roots from Celtic <strong>and</strong> European traditions. Back in earlier<br />
centuries, it was believed that ghosts were free to roam on <strong>Halloween</strong> <strong>and</strong> people thought that ghosts<br />
would recognize them if they left their house. After dark on <strong>Halloween</strong>, people would dress up in costumes<br />
so that ghosts would mistake them for other fellow ghosts <strong>and</strong> spirits. Today, the tradition of wearing<br />
costumes has evolved as a way more to show off creativity <strong>and</strong> have fun instead of warding off ghosts.<br />
<strong>Halloween</strong> has evolved into a more commercialized event focused on costumes, pumpkins, <strong>and</strong> c<strong>and</strong>y. In<br />
fact, one quarter of all the c<strong>and</strong>y sold each year in the U.S. is bought for <strong>Halloween</strong> treats. Between<br />
c<strong>and</strong>y, decorations, pumpkins, <strong>and</strong> costumes, Americans spend almost $7 billion every year on <strong>Halloween</strong><br />
- making it the second largest commercial holiday in the country. Put another way, the average U.S.<br />
consumer is expected to spend about $75 on <strong>Halloween</strong>-related items each year.<br />
<strong>GiftWorksPlus</strong> has several engraved frames for <strong>Halloween</strong>. These wooden frames are great for<br />
showcasing a child's first <strong>Halloween</strong>, a group of trick-or-treaters, or even a contest-winning pumpkin<br />
carving. These <strong>Halloween</strong> frames are also perfect gr<strong>and</strong>children frames to send to gr<strong>and</strong>parents, so they<br />
can see gr<strong>and</strong>kids in their <strong>Halloween</strong> costumes.<br />
