INTRODUCTION

The Halloween's Gambit is one the most scariest openings I know and today I am going to teach you how to play this opening.

HOW TO PLAY THE HALLOWEEN'S GAMBIT

To play the Halloween's Gambit we need to start with the four knights game as shown below.

After this we start with the super surprising sacrifice knight to e5 as shown below.

Most opponents will accept this sacrificed knight and then due to that they are gone, because then after that White's d and e pawns will start pushing Black's knights off their general development squares and then hoping to keep the material advantage black will retreat causing underdevelopment. Soon after that the position white will get will look like the position below.(NOTE:IF BLACK PUSHES HIS/HER KNIGHTS FORWARD THEN BLACK WILL LOSE SURELY LOSE ONE KNIGHT AND SOMETIMES BOTH,HENCE PUSHING THE KNIGHTS FORWARD IS WORTHLESS.)

After achieving this position white will be able to develop his/her pieces easily without many threats and soon checkmate black.

HOW TO DEFEND THIS GAMBIT FROM HAPPENING AS BLACK?

We can defend against this gambit as black by simply not accepting the gambited knight given by white and instead continue to develop his/her peices. It is tempting to take the knight but if you don't take the white knight which is gambited than you can still have chances to win.
