Happy Halloween
Boys and girls of every age
Wouldn't you like to see something strange?
Come with us and you will see
This,our town of Halloween
This is Halloween,this is Halloween
Pumpkins scream in the dead of night
This is Halloween,everybody make a scene
Trick or treat till the neighbors gonna die of fright
It's our town,everybody scream
In this town of Halloween
I am the one hiding under you bed
Teeth ground sharp and eyes glowing red
I am the one hiding under you bed
Fingers like snakes and spiders in my hair
This is Halloween,this is Halloweenr
Halloween!Halloween!Halloween!Halloween!
In this town we call home
Everyone hail to the pumpkin song
In this town,don't we love it now?
Everybody's waiting for the next surprise
Round that corner,man hiding in the trash can
Something's waiting now to pounce,and how you'll scream
Scream!This is Halloween
Red'n'black.slimy green
Aren't you scared?
Well,that's just fine
Say it once,say it twice
Take the chance and roll the dice
Ride with the moon in the dead of night
Everybody scream,everybody scream
In our town of Halloween
I am the clown with the tear-away face
Here in a flash and gone without a trace
I am the "who" when you call,"Who's there?"
I am the wind blowing through your hair
I am the shadow on the moon at night
Filling your dreams to the brim with fright
This is Halloween,this is Halloween
Halloween!Halloween!Halloween!Halloween!
Halloween!Halloween!
Tender lumplings everywhere
Life's no fun without a good scare
That's our job,but we're not mean
In our town of Halloween
In this town
Don't we love it now?
Everyone's waiting for the next surprise
Skeleton Jack might catch you in the back
And scream like a banshee make you jump out of your skin
This is Halloween,everyone scream
Won't ya please make way for a very special guy
Our man Jack is king of the pumpkin patch
Everyone hail to the Pumpkin King now
This is Halloween,this is Halloween
Halloween!Halloween!Halloween!Halloween!
In this town we call home
Everyone hail to the pumpkin song
La la-la la,Halloween!Halloween!
骷髅杰克在万众喝彩中豪华登场,苍白的面孔浮现着掩饰不住的得意,纤细的手指在火焰映照中不断舞动。
嘿,我是万圣节之王,他想。
万圣节是什么?
“糖果还是恶作剧?”你打开门,cos成南瓜王吸血鬼的孩子们拿着南瓜灯出现在你面前,“糖果还是恶作剧?”
两千多年前,欧洲的天主教会把11月1日定为“天下圣徒之日” (ALL HALLOWS DAY) 。“HALLOW” 即圣徒之意。传说自公元前五百年,居住在爱尔兰、苏格兰等地的凯尔特人 (CELTS) 把这节日往前移了一天,即10月31日。他们认为该日是夏天正式结束的日子,也就是新年伊始,严酷的冬季开始的一天。那时人们相信,故人的亡魂会在这一天回到故居地在活人身上找寻生灵,借此再生,而且这是人在死后能获得再生的唯一希望。而活着的人则惧怕死魂来夺生,于是人们就在这一天熄掉炉火、烛光,让死魂无法找寻活人,又把自己打扮成妖魔鬼怪把死人之魂灵吓走。之后,他们又会把火种烛光重新燃起,开始新的一年的生活。传说那时凯尔特人部落还有在10月31日把活人杀死用以祭奠死人的习俗。
到了公元1世纪,占领了凯尔特部落领地的罗马人也渐渐接受了万圣节习俗,但从此废止了烧活人祭死人的野蛮做法。罗马人庆祝丰收的节日与凯尔特人仪式结合,戴着可怕的面具,打扮成动物或鬼怪,则是为了赶走在他们四周游荡的妖魔。这也就是今天全球大部分人以古灵精怪的打扮,来庆祝万圣节的由来。时间流逝,万圣节的意义逐渐起了变化,变得积极快乐起来,喜庆的意味成了主流。死魂找替身返世的说法也渐渐被摒弃和忘却。到了今天,象征万圣节的形象、图画如巫婆、黑猫等,大都有友善可爱和滑稽的脸。
当然,这只是官方说法。
事实上万圣节是什么?
在不为人知的地方,存在着“节日的世界”。在这些世界里,居民们都会为了每年一度的节日而忙碌上整整一年,情人节城也好圣诞节城也罢,自然也有万圣节城的存在。
万圣节城的居民为了今天--万圣节的庆典,努力了一年,在伟大的南瓜王杰克·斯克林顿的带领下,在各色鬼怪的万众一心下,尖叫与恐怖将于今日降临大地。
南瓜王杰克
醉醺醺的爱尔兰人杰克给了魔鬼一口暖酒,说:“上树喝,更有意思。”
杰克是一个爱恶作剧的酒鬼。有一天晚上,他把一个魔鬼骗上树,然后在树干上刻了个十字架,让魔鬼下不来。后来魔鬼不得不向他哀求,然后杰克就与魔鬼约法三章,保证以后他再也不会引诱杰克去做坏事,杰克才让他下树。杰克死后,魔鬼报复了,它让杰克上天不得入地无门,罚他提着灯笼永远在人世里满无目的的流浪,手里只有一盏灯笼取暖。
当然,这也是官方说法。
真正的杰克是谁?
杰克·斯克林顿是万圣节城整蛊办法最多,最受大家欢迎的明星。每年的万圣节庆典他总是意气风发的登场,制造恐怖,接受欢呼,尽管他也有过厌倦这种生活,试图绑架生蛋老人并取而代之的时候,但归根结底,杰克·斯克林顿仍然是那个无所不能的南瓜王,永远的万圣节之王。
每每到万圣节之际,总会想到蒂姆·波顿,想到《圣诞夜惊魂》,想到骷髅杰克。胖子波顿想像出来的那个有着诗人般阴郁敏感的气质,苍白忧郁的面孔的南瓜王在十三年之后的今天仍然形象鲜明甚至已经成为了符号。他是万圣节的最佳代表。
今天,无数的妖魔鬼怪将游走四方,你或许会遇到德古拉,或许会碰见狼人,抑或与科学怪人不期而遇--当你正在琢磨这些cosplayer的专业水准时,他们已经嬉笑着与你擦肩而过。今晚是他们的节日。
