Which of the following items is NOT the symbol of Halloween?
Halloween originated as a celebration connected with evil spirits. (11) Witches flying on broomsticks with ghosts, goblins and skeletons have all evolved as symbols of Halloween. They were originally feared because people believed that these creatures could communicate with the spirits of the dead. Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors, probably because Halloween festivals and traditions took place at night. In the weeks before October 31, Americans decorate windows of houses and schools with puppets and toys of witches and black cats.
Pumpkins are also a symbol of Halloween. The pumpkin is an orange colored squash, and orange has become the other traditional Halloween color. Carving pumpkins into jack-o’-lanterns is a Halloween custom also dating back to Ireland. When the Irish brought their customs to the United States, they carved faces on pumpkins. (12)Today jack-o’-lanterns in the windows of a house on Halloween night let costumed children know that there are candies waiting if they knock and say "Trick or Treat!"
No Halloween party is complete without at least one scary story. Usually one person talks in a low voice while everyone else crowds together on the floor or around a fire.

B、Skeleton.
C、Pumpkin.
D、Turkey.
