Halloween is celebrated every year on the night of October 31 and is the “Day of the Dead” as the word translates.
Where did Halloween begin?
For centuries the celebration of Halloween was limited only to Ireland and Scotland, in the 19th century Irish and Scottish immigrants brought the celebration of Halloween to North America, while from the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century due to the American influence the celebration it has also extended to countries that have nothing to do with the Anglo-Saxon world.
Of course, on Halloween, children dress up in scary costumes and visit houses collecting lots of sweets, known as “trick or treat”.
Also, the pumpkin is a symbol of the holiday. Also, people play pranks, light fires, watch movies with relevant themes or visit “haunted” attractions.
What are we celebrating?
The name Halloween comes from All-hallow-even means: eve of the feast of All Saints. A key feature of the celebration are lanterns made from real pumpkins, on which terrifying human features are made. During Halloween it is said that the souls of the dead wander the Earth. The dead “walk” among us looking to enter the body of someone alive and thereby gain immortality.
