Now that Halloween is out of the way, it's almost time for Bonfire Night!
On 5 November, many people in England, Scotland and Wales celebrate the date with fireworks, bonfires, sparklers and toffee apples.
The tradition marks the anniversary of the failed Gunpowder Plot when Guy (Guido) Fawkes tried to blow up the House of Parliament.
Remember, remember, the fifth of November
That was way back in 1605. Nowadays the event often involves fireworks, bonfires and sparklers - but loads of people have their own traditions.
