The traditional and cultural even that we know today as Halloween – super famous in countries like the United States, Canada, Ireland and the United Kingdom – was actually born more than ten centuries ago, inspired by the celebrations and origins of ancient peoples like the Celts. Truth be told, the first official record of the word “Halloween”is very, very old. The term was born thanks to the contraction of the Scottish term “Allhallow –eve”, which means the eve of All Saints’ Day and was considered a holy night.
However, there’s also a religious side to this explanation. Thisstory says Halloween is based on a possibility connected to the Catholic Church, which could have tried to eliminate the Celtic pagan festival of Samhain, instituting restrictions on the eve of All Saints’Day. Honestly, this tradition is so old that any explanation would make sense and, anyway, what matters is the present. With time, the celebration of Halloween spread all over the world and, currently, this ritual generates billions of dollars of revenue in candy sales each season. And what about the outfits?!
