Halloween is a day to go trick-or-treating

The carved pumpkin can be done for fun but the true history of it is the Irish started to carve out demonic faces to scare away jacks wandering soul.

Thanksgiving is a day to celebrate your health and other blessings over the past year

The turkey is eaten because colonists hunted turkeys during autumn and it gained traction as the Thanksgiving meal for people after Lincoln declared Thanksgiving a national holiday.
