Spooky Halloween<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n

This week, we’re getting in a spooky mood to enjoy all things Halloween\u00a0\ud83d\ude08<\/p>\n

Celebrating Halloween is a fairly recent thing in France (circa 1997), but this time of year has always been linked to the world of the dead and spirits, especially in the Celtic region of Bretagne, where la Toussaint<\/strong><\/em> (All Saints’ Day on Nov 1st) was known as the day when the door between the living and the dead stands open. There, we also sculpted vegetables to keep spirits away, but we used beets instead of pumpkins!\u00a0\ud83c\udf83<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alors, sans plus attendre<\/em>, put on your scariest costumes to open the chest of hair-raising French Kwiziq content we’ve selected for you!\u00a0\ud83e\udee3<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soudain, les portes couvertes de toiles d’araign\u00e9e<\/strong> se sont ouvertes et, \u00e0 la lueur de la pleine lune<\/strong>, j’ai vu un squelette effrayant<\/strong>, avec une citrouille-lanterne<\/strong> \u00e0 la main, sortir du manoir. Je me suis mis \u00e0 courir \u00e0 travers le cimeti\u00e8re<\/strong> devant la maison quand, tout \u00e0 coup, j’ai tr\u00e9buch\u00e9 sur une tombe<\/strong> et… je me suis r\u00e9veill\u00e9. Ouf\u00a0! Ce n’\u00e9tait qu’un cauchemar<\/strong>\u00a0!”<\/em><\/p>\n
