Feedback

Samhain was the Celtic festival marking summer's end and spirits' return.

Masks were believed to disguise people from roaming spirits.

Adults and children performed acts or songs in exchange for food.

All Saints' Day on Nov 1 influenced the eve name All Hallows' Eve.

The name evolved from All Hallows' Eve to Halloween.

Irish immigrants particularly carried Halloween customs to America in the 1800s.

The 19th century saw many Irish immigrants bring customs to the U.S.

It evolved into a festive, candy-filled community event.

Today many celebrate with parades and candy instead of fear.

Origins in Samhain, church influence, then a community-friendly holiday.
