Where did Halloween originate from?
• Dates back 2,000 years ago to the Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-in).
• The Celts lived in Ireland, the UK, and northern France and celebrated their new year on November 1
• Nov. 1 marked the end of summer and the harvest and the beginning of the dark, cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human death.
• They believed on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred.
• On the night of Oct. 31 they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.
• During the celebration, the Celts wore costumes, typically consisting of animal heads and skins, and attempted to tell each other’s fortunes.
![Page 24: El día de los muertos. When is Day of the Dead? November 1- Honors dead children November 2- Honors dead adults](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bfc51a28abf838ca6afe/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Where did Halloween originate from?• May 13, 609 A.D.- All Martyrs Day was established• It later included saints and was moved from May 13 to Nov. 1 • By the 9th century Christianity influenced the Celtic lands • In 1000- Nov. 2- All Souls’ Day was created to honor the dead• It is believed that the church was attempting to replace the Celtic
festival of the dead with a related, but church-sanctioned holiday• All Souls Day was celebrated similarly to Samhain, with big
bonfires, parades, and dressing up in costumes as saints, angels and devils.
• The All Saints Day celebration was also called All-hallows or All-hallowmas (from Middle English Alholowmesse meaning All Saints’ Day) and the night before it, the traditional night of Samhain in the Celtic religion, began to be called and, eventually, Halloween.

What do people typically do on Halloween?
![Page 27: El día de los muertos. When is Day of the Dead? November 1- Honors dead children November 2- Honors dead adults](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bfc51a28abf838ca6afe/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
What were jack-o-lanterns originally used for?
On all Hallow's eve, the Irish hollowed out Turnips, rutabagas, gourds, potatoes and beets. They placed a

![Page 28: El día de los muertos. When is Day of the Dead? November 1- Honors dead children November 2- Honors dead adults](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bfc51a28abf838ca6afe/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Why was candy originally given out?• Irish and English traditions- Americans began to dress up in costumes and
go house to house asking for food or money, a practice that eventually became today’s “trick-or-treat” tradition.
• Between 1920-1950 Trick-or-treating was a relatively inexpensive way for an entire community to share the Halloween celebration
• Families could prevent tricks being played on them by providing the neighborhood children with small treats.
• The American Halloween tradition of “trick-or-treating” probably dates back to the early All Souls’ Day parades in England.
• During the festivities, poor citizens would beg for food and families would give them pastries called “soul cakes” in return for their promise to pray for the family’s dead relatives.
• The distribution of soul cakes was encouraged by the church as a way to replace the ancient practice of leaving food and wine for roaming spirits. The practice, which was referred to as “going a-souling” was eventually taken up by children who would visit the houses in their neighborhood and be given ale, food, and money.

Why do people wear costumes on Halloween?• Comes from European and Celtic roots• When winter was uncertain and frightening, food supplies often
ran low and, for the many people afraid of the dark, the short days of winter were full of constant worry
• It was believed that ghosts came back and people thought that they would encounter ghosts if they left their homes
• To avoid being recognized by the ghosts, people wore masks when they left their homes after dark so that ghosts would mistake them for fellow spirits.
• To keep ghosts away from their houses, people placed bowls of food outside their homes to appease the ghosts and to prevent them from attempting to enter.
