S&M and costume parties were held in several Sofia venues on Monday to mark Halloween.

Return of the Living Death is the name of the S&M party organized by Sofia club 3 Ushi (Three Ears) that featured a fashion show, and performances by local DJs and British Goth legend DJ De'Ath. Scary costumes inspired by the need for pain infliction will be a must at the entrance.

Hilton Hotel also marked All Hallows' Eve with a party at its Artist Bar with free entrance and Halloween drinks and snacks. The guests were entertained by the Ghost Mongers.

Attractions Park Sofia Land held a free entrance party in its Verona Square for the fourth year in a row and those with the most inventive costumes and attractive hairdos were prized.

Beer Place "The Broken Hearts Club" in the heart of students town area once again gathered costumed enthusiasts willing to celebrate the imported holiday.

Halloween is based on the ancient Celtic holiday 'All Hallows Eve', that marked the only day of the year when dead spirits were allowed to walk the earth.

Most celebrated in the US, Halloween has now spread its influence mainly as a commercialized event in many countries that did not celebrate it five or ten years ago, Bulgaria included.
