How did Halloween begin the legend of

Halloween)?

Long ago, people believed that evil spirits stole

the sun at the end of summer. These spirits hidthe sun during winter, making the days short and

the nights long. People feared this dark andmonotonous time of year. The worst night of allwas October 31.

When is Halloween?

Halloween is a very old Celtic festival

celebrated on the night of the 31st of Octoberevery year. The name Halloween comes fromHallows Eve(ning) - the day before All

Hallows Day (the 1st of November, nowknown as All Saints Day).

Halloween is traditionally the day when it is

possible to meet ghosts, witches, devils andother scary monsters. On this day, the monsters

are able to visit us and cause bad things tohappen: accidents, sickness and bad luck of allkinds.

Trick OR treat

Many years ago some people believed ghosts

were the spirits of their dead relatives who came

home to visit once a year, on Halloween. Hugefires were kept burning on hilltops to guide these

friendly ghosts home. The ghosts werewelcomed with feasts of nuts, apples, cakes,

bread, and meat. People thought if the ghosts didnot get enough treats, they would become angry.They would then play terrible tricks, like

stealing children or killing cows and horses.

Why do we carve pumpkins on

Halloween?

Long ago, children in Ireland made lanterns

from large turnips (gulii). They hollowed out the

turnips and carved faces in them. Candles insidethe turnips were lit to make scary faces to

frighten away evil spirits. When the Irish cameto America, they found pumpkins growing here.Since pumpkins ripen around the middle of

October they became part of the Halloweentradition. Today we call carved pumpkins Jack-0'-Lanterns.
