Halogens are the chemicals found in group 17 of the periodic table; namely flourine, chlorine, iodine, bromine and astatine.

A halogen gas would be any of these elements in gas form or a gaseous compound including halogen elements (such as chloroflourocarbons, or CFCs, which used to be used in refrigerators - but since it damages the ozone layer they are no longer used).
