【万圣节节日活动】
纽约市也特别在万圣节晚上举行巡游,让一群吸血鬼,僵尸(zombie),女巫,科学怪人等齐齐现身,还欢迎市民到场参观,到会者不限年龄、性别,不分阶级、国籍,即使你是胆小鬼,也可加入他们的行列,来个热热闹闹的人鬼嘉年华会。
其实这些鬼怪都是人扮的,所以并不可怕,相反有些小鬼脸更非常可爱,令人置身其中,就如参加大型化装舞会一样。
在各式各样的装扮角色中,以女巫僵尸一族最多人扮演,而那些专卖万圣节用品的.店铺也特别准备这类衣饰出售,以迎合大众所需;与此同时,生产商每年更会把当年大热的人物造型包括面具及衣物推出市场,务求令更多人投入西方传统节日的热潮里,如在电影<哈利波特>的小巫师造型,已是许多孩子必选的扮演角色。
格林威治村的万圣节巡游﹝Greenwich Village Halloween Parade﹞始于1973年,由一位面具工匠兼木偶演员Mr Ralph Lee发起,据说最初他带着朋友和孩童一起在邻居处游行,后来渐渐演变成整个村的大型活动,而活动中当然少不了大型木偶表演,同时,巡行的目的更希望每一个人都是参与者而不是旁观者,所以即使人们只是抱着想看热闹的心态,当你踏进村子里,很快便会被邀请参与巡行,成为他们的一份子。
纽约市的万圣节巡游每年都吸引成千上万的纽约人和游客参加,而巡游会在格林威治村﹝Greenwich Village﹞举行,各队伍约在夜晚上七时从第六大道与春天街交界﹝6th Avenue & Spring Street﹞起步,一直游行至第二十三街﹝6th Avenue & 23rdStreet﹞为止,全程大概多个小时。
无论是来自亚洲,南美,非洲,欧洲,以至中东地区的参观者,都可以把自己装扮成各式各样的人物,亦可带备简单乐器,即时演奏本土的独特音乐,融合无疆界的风土文化。可能我以前从未参加过万圣节的活动,更莫说这么精彩的巡游,所以特别觉得有新鲜感。
早于十月中,曼哈顿市已开始“闹鬼”了,在繁忙的街道上,已看见四处悬挂起万圣节的鬼怪装饰,很多百货公司也忙着把应节礼品及衣物堆放在橱窗里,吸引不少途人驻足观看,而超级市场及街市亦摆放大大小小的南瓜售卖,供市民买回家布置家园或制作南瓜灯之用,当然嘛,也有主妇烹煮南瓜作菜肴或糕饼,完全依足节庆传统。
