Witches will fly all over the skies, green ghosts will howl and black cats will yowl because it’s time for Halloween eve. Straddling in between the fall and winter, life and death, plenty and paucity, Halloween is usually a time of superstition and celebration.
The concept is thought to have originated during the ancient Samhain Celtic festival, where people used to light bonfires while in weird costumes in order to ward off the roaming ghosts. During the 8th century, Pope Gregory III started incorporating the tradition of Samhain and honoring all martyrs and saints on November 1, which came to be known as All Saints’ Day.
The previous evening was remembered as All Hallows’ Eve and the next as Halloween. Over the years, Halloween evolved in to a more secular and community based event. In most of the countries around the world, as day grow shorter and nights start getting colder, people begin to usher in the winter with costumes, gatherings and sweet treats.
