    Although most Americans spend Halloween


    dressing up and trick-or-treating, other
    countries have their own celebratory rituals.
    Here are 12 Halloween (and Halloween- like)
    traditions from around the world. Ireland is
    considered the birthplace of modern
    Halloween with its origins stemming from
    ancient Celtic and Pagan rituals and a festival
    called Samhain, or Samhuinn (end of the light
    half of the year), that took place thousands of
    years ago. Today, both Ireland and Scotland
    celebrate Halloween with bonfires, games,
    and traditional foods like barmbrack, an Irish
    fruitcake that contains coins, buttons, and
    rings for fortunetelling. For example, rings
    mean marriage, while coins mean wealth in
    the upcoming year. From November 1 to
    November 2, Mexico and parts of Latin
    America celebrate Día de los Muertos (Day of
    the Dead) to honor those who have passed
    away. It is believed that the Gates of Heaven
    open up at mid- night on October 31 and the
    souls of children return to Earth to be
    reunited with their families for 24 hours. On
    November 2, the souls of adults come down
    .from heaven to join in the festivities
    People from all around the world flock to
    celebrate Halloween at Vlad ‘The Impaler’
    Tepes’s purported home at Bran Castle in
    Transylvania, Romania (although it was never
    actually his castle, and there’s been a long-
    running debate over whether he ever even
    visited the site). There are a number of
    guides and inclusive travel pack- ages in
    Romania that offer tours and parties at Count
    .Dracula’s castle for Halloween
