Last Sunday I went to the Halloween Parade in Kawasaki. It was a lot of fun and the costumes were incredible (素晴らしい). I was really surprised that Halloween has become so popular (人気). When I came to Japan in 1993, very few people were interested in Halloween, but things have really changed.
Here's a little quiz about Halloween words. Can you match the English and Japanese words?

The answers are in the comments.
Here are some of my photos from the parade:
