Typical festive Halloween activities include trick - or - treat, attending costume parties, carving lanterns, lightning bonfires, apple bobbing, visiting haunted attractions, playing pranks, telling scary stories, watching horror films, as well as the religious observance of praying, fasting and attending vigils or Church services.
