Halloween will forever be my favorite holiday.

Seriously, the frightful festivities that go along with this holiday just never seem to get old.

But it turns out there's a lot more to this spooky celebration than just TPing houses, demanding candy from strangers and transforming lingerie into a "costume" with some furry animal ears.

Come on guys, I'm a mouse, duh!

Aside from being insanely fun, Halloween actually has quite a history.

It goes back in time as one of the oldest traditions around and is celebrated by all sorts of cultures across the globe.
