"We used Ghost Writers to invite families to our Halloween party. Kids were so proud to spell their names."

Halloween originated as the ancient Celtic harvest festival of Samhain (pronounced Sow-en) in ancient Ireland and Britain. On this night, all kinds of ghosts, goblins, and witches were believed to roam about.
