Originated in Ireland, Hallowe’en, or Holloween is a holiday celebrated on the night of October 31st.
About 2,000 years ago, the Celts (who lived in the area that is now Ireland, UK), celebrated their new year on November 1st.
Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred.
On the night of October 31, they celebrated Samhain (pronounced sow-in), when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.
During the celebration, the Celts wore costumes (that consisting of animal heads and skins), gathered round the huge sacred bonfires to burn
crops and animals as sacrifices to the Celtic deities. When the celebration was over, they re-lit their hearth fires,
which they had extinguished earlier that evening, from the sacred bonfire to help protect them during the coming winter.
By the 800s, the influence of Christianity had spread into Celtic lands. In the seventh century, Pope Boniface IV designated November 1 All Saints' Day,
a time to honor saints and martyrs. The celebration was also called All-hallows or All-hallowmas (from Middle English Alholowmesse meaning All Saints' Day)
and the night before it, the night of Samhain, began to be called All-hallows Eve and, eventually, Halloween
Today, we celebrate Halloween by participating trick-or-treating, ghost tours, bonfires, costume parties, visiting haunted houses, carving Jack-o'-lanterns,
reading scary stories and watching horror movies.
