11 DIY Nightmare Before Christmas Halloween Party Ideas Shelterness

Halloween or Hallowe'en (a contraction of Hallows' Even or Hallows' Evening), also called Allhalloween, All Hallows' Eve, or All Saints' Eve, is really a celebration witnessed in several countries on 31 October, the eve in the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day. It begins the three-day observance of Allhallowtide,[9] time in the liturgical year specialized in remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all sorts of the faithful departed.It is widely belief that many Halloween traditions came from ancient Celtic harvest festivals, in particular the Gaelic festival Samhain; that such festivals might have had pagan roots; and this Samhain itself was Christianized as Halloween from the early Church. Some believe, however, that Halloween began solely being 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, along with watching horror films. In many parts with the world, the Christian religious observances of All Hallows' Eve, including attending church services and lighting candles about the graves from 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 within the eating of certain vegetarian foods for this vigil day, including apples, potato pancakes, and soul cakes.
