Halloween

Halloween is a holiday in several or more countries. It is famous for its dark and creepy themes and for children dressing up and going door to door trick or treating. Due to this holiday being infamous many countries that don't have the holiday have become aware of American concepts associated with Halloween, such as spooky black cats and jack-'o-lanturns.
Several animals are commonly seen in Halloween amongst and sometimes included as part of the monster-plethora:
*Black cats
*Bats
*Spiders
*Ravens and Crows
*Scary variations of dogs, especially dead or black dogs.
*Owls
*Rats
To a lesser extent other scary animals are included in Halloween, such as snakes and bugs like cockroaches and flies. But really anything portrayed as dead or especially frightening and monstrous. Other animals that have associations with the night or monsters, such as moths and toads, may also be included. Their Halloween feel may be strong, but not as strong as those animals above IMO.
If we were an archeologist looking at Halloween, we'd probably say that these animals, amongst many other aspects, were sacred to the holiday.
