Halloween or Hallowe'en (a contraction of Hallows' Even or Hallows' Evening), generally known as Allhalloween, All Hallows' Eve, or All Saints' Eve, is really a celebration noticed in several countries on 31 October, the eve from the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day. It begins the three-day observance of Allhallowtide,[9] some time in the liturgical year focused on remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all sorts of the faithful departed.It is widely thought many Halloween traditions comes from ancient Celtic harvest festivals, especially the Gaelic festival Samhain; that such festivals could possibly have had pagan roots; knowning that Samhain itself was Christianized as Halloween from the early Church. Some believe, however, that Halloween began solely as being a Christian holiday.Halloween activities include trick-or-treating (or perhaps the related guising and souling), attending Halloween costume parties, carving pumpkins into jack-o'-lanterns, lighting bonfires, apple bobbing, divination games, playing pranks, visiting haunted attractions, telling scary stories, in addition to watching horror films. In many parts from the world, the Christian religious observances of All Hallows' Eve, including attending church services and lighting candles around the graves with the dead, remain popular, although elsewhere it is often a more commercial and secular celebration. Some Christians historically abstained from meat on All Hallows' Eve, a tradition reflected inside the eating of certain vegetarian foods for this vigil day, including apples, potato pancakes, and soul cakes.
