20 Super Scary Halloween Decorations

Halloween or Hallowe'en (a contraction of Hallows' Even or Hallows' Evening), also referred to as Allhalloween, All Hallows' Eve, or All Saints' Eve, is usually a celebration affecting several countries on 31 October, the eve with the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day. It begins the three-day observance of Allhallowtide,[9] time in the liturgical year committed to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all sorts of the faithful departed.It is widely thought many Halloween traditions descends from ancient Celtic harvest festivals, specially the Gaelic festival Samhain; that such festivals might have had pagan roots; which Samhain itself was Christianized as Halloween from the early Church. Some believe, however, that Halloween began solely to be a Christian holiday.Halloween activities include trick-or-treating (and 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 on the world, the Christian religious observances of All Hallows' Eve, including attending church services and lighting candles for the graves on the dead, remain popular, although elsewhere it is really 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 about this vigil day, including apples, potato pancakes, and soul cakes.
