Myanmar-Halloween-Festival
A man with costume make up looks on at a Halloween party in Yangon on October 31, 2014. Halloween, a contraction of All Hallows Eve, is celebrated on the last day of October before All Saints Day. The tradition of revellers dressing up as ghosts during Halloween goes back to a folk belief that beings from the afterlife will mingle with those on earth on that day, thus humans disguised as ghosts will be left alone by the supernatural.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Ye Aung Thu, we are transported to a Halloween party in Yangon, Myanmar. The image showcases a man adorned with intricate costume makeup, his gaze fixed on something intriguing. It is October 31st, and the air is filled with an electric energy as people gather to celebrate Halloween. Halloween, derived from All Hallows Eve, holds deep cultural significance around the world. In Myanmar's vibrant capital city of Yangon, locals embrace this tradition wholeheartedly. As dusk settles over the cityscape, revellers don their ghostly attire in anticipation of supernatural encounters. The belief that spirits roam freely among humans on this particular day has led to the practice of disguising oneself as a ghost or otherworldly creature. This age-old folk belief suggests that those who dress up will be left undisturbed by these ethereal beings. Ye Aung Thu's photograph encapsulates both the eerie ambiance and festive spirit of Myanmar's Halloween celebration. The man depicted stands as a symbol of this fascinating tradition; his elaborate makeup serving as a testament to the creativity and dedication put into each costume. As we observe this mesmerizing scene frozen in time through Ye Aung Thu's lens, we cannot help but marvel at how cultures intertwine and evolve across borders.
