  25. Origins • Halloween began two thousand years ago in Ireland, England, and Northern France with the ancient religion of the Celts (Paganism).

  26. They celebrated their NewYear on November 1st. • This day marked the beginning of the dark, cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human death.

  27. Samhain (sow-in) • On the night of October 31, they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.

  28. Costumes • People thought that they would encounter ghosts if they left their homes…

  29. So they wore costumes. • This way, the ghosts couldn’t recognize them!

  30. The Christian Influence • As the influence of Christianity spread into Celtic lands, in the 7th century, Pope Boniface IV introduced All Saints' Day, a time to honor saints and martyrs, to replace the Pagan festival of Samhain. It was observed on May 13th.

  31. A change of date • In 834, Pope Gregory III moved All Saint's Day from May 13th to Nov. 1st. Oct. 31st thus became All Hallows' Eve ('hallow' means 'saint').

  32. All Souls Day November 2nd, called All Souls Day, is the day set apart in the Roman Catholic Church for the commemoration of the dead.

  33. Trick-or-treating began with the poor in the 15th century… • During the All Souls Day festival in England, poor people would beg for “soul cakes,” made out of square pieces of bread with currants • Families would give soul cakes in return for a promise to pray for the family’s relatives

  34. then children… • The practice, which was referred to as "going a-souling" was eventually taken up by children who would visit the houses in their neighborhood and be given ale, food, and money.

  35. Today: • Children still go from house-to-house, but instead of ale, food, and money, they get candy.

  36. With Irish Immigration… • In 1848, millions of Irish emigrants poured into America as a result of the potato famine. They brought with them their traditions of Halloween.

  37. Halloween came to America. • They called Halloween Oidche Shamhna (`Night of Samhain'), as their ancestors had, and kept the traditional observances.

  38. The Jack-O-Lantern • The Irish used to carry turnips with candles in them to light their way at night and to scare away ghosts..

  39. When they arrived in America they found that pumpkins were both plentiful and easier to carve than turnips.

  40. Now, Jack-O-Lanterns are used for decorating people’s homes.

  41. People have recently started carving less traditional Jack-O-Lanterns

  42. Today people go to parties…
