Halloween or Hallowe'en (a contraction of Hallows' Even or Hallows' Evening), often known as Allhalloween, All Hallows' Eve, or All Saints' Eve, is really a celebration noticed in 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] any time in the liturgical year focused on remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and the faithful departed.It is widely considered that many Halloween traditions descends from ancient Celtic harvest festivals, in particular the Gaelic festival Samhain; that such festivals could have had pagan roots; which Samhain itself was Christianized as Halloween with the early Church. Some believe, however, that Halloween began solely as being a Christian holiday.Halloween activities include trick-or-treating (or 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 with 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 within the eating of certain vegetarian foods with this vigil day, including apples, potato pancakes, and soul cakes.
