Halloween or Hallowe’en, also known as Allhalloween, All Hallows’ Eve, or All Saints’ Eve, is a celebration observed in many countries on this day. In Christian traditions, the eve marks the Western Christian feast of All Hallows’ Day. It begins the three-day observance of Allhallowtide, the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints, martyrs, and all the faithful departed. There are other interpretations of the origins of this day including pagan observances dating back to the Gaelic festival of Samhain which celebrated the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter or the “darker half” of the year.
