God halloween was originally a celtic holiday called [soin] that celebrated the turning a summer into winter
It was said that the night before november [1st] would be one where spirits and ghosts
but cross over from the other side and [made] contact with the living
Catholic and Roman influence would add to the holiday traditions and like bobbing for apples

Halloween also known is all Halloween all hallows Eve and all Saint's eve dates back
1745 Christian Origins Halloween can be simplified to
Holy evening and comes from a Scottish term for all hallows eve
Which comes the night before the [feast] of November first similar to how we have Christmas eve and Christmas day an extra excuse to celebrate?
The origins of Halloween can be traced back to a celtic festival called [soin] on
November 1st the celts of what is now uk Ireland and
Northern France would all Gather to celebrate their new year and end of the harvest summer by having a big feast
lighting massive bonfires and
Letting the alcohol flow these guys always knew how to throw the best holiday parties as we can already see from St.
Patty's Day
How many pumpkin spiced drinks you think exists out there?
this night right before the new [Year] was seen as a time when the line between the living and the dead became blurred and
Otherworldly spirits would be able to make contact with the living and the ancient cells would put out treats and food for the ghosts
during the celebration
They also dressed up in costumes made from animal skins
Real animal skins a bit more hardcore than the animal cost as we see today. What are you?

Duh during the ancient Celtic festival [Druzhba] throw the Cattle bones into large fires it's from this tradition that we get the term
bonfire
Which would eventually become bonfire the [druze] were also set [to] lock cats into wicker cages and put them into the fire as well
I really got the bat part the fusion died out
Now the only animal we lock it through every cages and set on fire is nic cage
By [43c]. [II] the roman empire had conquered a large amount of celtic territory and Modern france
But they had enough sense to see that [soin] was a pretty badass holiday
so they decided to keep it around and merge it with their own holidays the first holiday was for [a]
Late October day to commemorate the passing of the dead
The second was Pomona [day] a day to honor the roman goddess of fruit and trees and along [with] that festival another tradition was introduced
Bobbing for apples the Romans thought that apples predicted future
Bobbing for an apple and being the first bite into one meant that you'd be the next to get married. Oh my gosh. Oh
by the [ninth] Century
Christianity had spread into most celtic lands and the church of the pope became extremely important which means that all
Rules are made by that pope boniface the fourth made november the [2nd] all souls day a day very
Similar does so in in terms of festivities and costumes, but stationed by the church instead of the celtic tradition
This was also called all hallows day and the night before had become known all hallows eve
Which would eventually be shortened to halloween later on in the 16th century some other traditions began that are still around today
One of these is a jack-o'-lantern carving Jack-o'-lanterns were named after character
And Irish legend named Jack was forbidden to either enter heaven or hell after he tricked the devil several times
Originally Jack Volantis [ricard] from turnips and their purpose was to ward off evil spirits and made venture into the home
Another tradition added at this time was an old version of trick-or-treating called mob meeting guys people would go
[how's] the house reformed song-And-dance in exchange for tokens of food?
Tree Sadly their original English settlers of America did not celebrate halloween as they were puritans who generally opposed
Anything resembling fun, so how did Halloween get to North America?
Well like [Guiness] color photography and Michael McCready we have the Irish to thing there 19th century potato famine
thousands of Hungry families were forced to flee
Ireland and as depressing as it sounds they were so ready to party and brought their halloween costumes to the new world
[North] Americans started using pumpkins for
jack-o'-Lanterns because they were easier to carve than turnips in the eighteen hundreds there was a push to make halloween more of a family's and
This is what took the religious overtone out by Modern Day by the 1920s
Halloween became the widespread money making Candy living holiday. We know and love today
Whatever you do. Don't go into your friend James's neighborhood. That's a bad area
Stay away and now America dominates the holiday both Salem, Massachusetts and anoka
