Levi and Catharine Coffin Levi Coffin was a Quaker born on Oct. 28, 1798 on a farm in New Garden, N.C., the only son of seven children born to Levi Coffin and Prudence Williams “The Coffin’s.” Levi mutually shared his hatred for slavery with both his parents and grandparents they all were opposed to slavery, Coffin noted in his memoirs published in 1876, “and none of either of the families ever owned slaves; and all were friends of the oppressed, so I claim that I inherited my anti-slavery principles.” As a teenager, Levi first opportunity to help free slaves came when a man by the name Stephen Holland brought a group of slaves to the corn husking.
Skunk Hollow or, “the mountain,” was a free black community from 1806 to 1905. It was a small community of free blacks that was located in the Palisades area. Two years after New Jersey ratified its Gradual Emancipation Act, newly freed slaves settled in a small community known as Skunk Hollow. There were over sixty households in the community known as Skunk Hollow. The Skunk Hollow settlers were more prosperous than other African-American families in the township because most of the Skunk Hollow residents owned property by 1854.
I picked out a decent sized one with Raven and a couple small ones with my sister. It was getting dark so mom said to hurry up so we could pay. When we got in there it said small pumpkins a dollar and big ones for 4. We paid 7 dollars and on the way out it said haunted corn maze free. I told my mom, “ Look at the sign it says the corn maze is free so that means we can do it right.”
Trick-or-treating hasn’t always been part of the celebration, although, it is one of the main traditions of Halloween. Children go around from house to house dressed up, asking for treats (typically candy) and when they approach the door they say “Trick-or-treat?” The “trick” part of it is when you do not

Tomorrow we begin the month of October. October gives us a full month of colorful autumn and ends with the spooky day of Halloween. There are people who enjoy this holiday especially children and those who think it a pagan event. Personally I have always enjoyed Halloween just for the fun of it with nothing other than that. A kind of autumn celebration with carved pumpkins, colorful leaves and the ghosts and ghoulies just for fun.

That inpacted me so much because the fact that no one thought of me
Even though the house appeared to be haunted or abandoned at first, the child ends up receiving candy with a big smile on his face to show that this in fact was not the case. He even then appears as though he accomplished his mission. Near the end of the ad, a man’s voice says “Halloween, it’s a big night kids” which shows that the focused audience is on kids. At the end they showcase their items and with big letter they show “4.99” to demonstrate that their costumes are not only “cool” but also affordable which would definitely attract more consumers.

One of the most-awaited moments of the year is right here once again. Dim neighborhoods are brightened by ghastly smiles of Jack-o '-lanterns in communities where the breeze is also slowly getting colder and the leaves that have fallen off of pines give each step a crunch. In a few days, children dressed like pirates, princesses, ghouls, and little monsters will be knocking on doors requesting goodies and several other goodies. Yet just before Halloween begins, you can delight the kids in your community by teaming up with several moms and dads and arranging a Halloween scavenger quest.
History of Halloween, like any other festival's history is inspired through traditions that have transpired through ages from one generation to another. We follow them mostly as did our dads and grandpas. And as this process goes on, much of their originality get distorted with newer additions and alterations. It happens so gradually, spanning over so many ages, that we hardly come to know about these distortions. At one point of time it leaves us puzzled, with its multicolored faces.
Have you ever owned a pet that has done something that you knew would get you or your pet in trouble. Something that you wish your pet would have stopped and thought about it before they did it, my dog pepper did, and It has become a memory that I won’t ever forget.

Waking up with her presents on the front door. Presents consisting of decapitated bloody mice. One time she left the tail too. Or when I was a genius of a five-year-old, and decided to pet her with my foot. She bit me.
