The arrangement of seasonal ornamentation intended to transform a domestic space in celebration of All Hallows’ Eve is a common practice. Examples include the deployment of simulated cobwebs, carved pumpkins illuminated from within, and thematic representations of supernatural entities such as ghosts and bats. The objective is to create an atmosphere that evokes the spirit of the holiday through visual and tactile elements.
The incorporation of these decorative elements serves multiple purposes. They can foster a sense of community engagement, provide opportunities for creative expression, and contribute to the establishment of annual traditions. Historically, such practices have roots in ancient harvest festivals and beliefs surrounding the boundary between the living and the deceased becoming more permeable on this particular night.
