In Russia, they proposed to replace Halloween with a holiday of Russian legends with 'scary' national figures. Deputy Secretary of the Public Bureau Grib believes that children can preserve the tradition of costumes, contests and games, but instead of foreign heroes use the immortal Kushchi, Baba Yaga, Lashgu and Vodyanoi. We would advise Mr. Mushroom to pay attention to the analogue of Halloween, - Christmas, which lasts from the Nativity of Christ (January 7, old style), to Christmas Eve in the Epiphany (January 17). In folk tradition, Christmas is seen as a "borderline" time - the border between the old and new years, when, according to beliefs, the border between the living world and the other world becomes thinner. This period was full of rituals, magical operations and fortune-telling, with the help of which they tried to ensure well-being throughout the year, protect themselves from trouble and find out their destiny. And if you know history, then it turns out that there is no need to invent anything, but only to make it popular.
