What is Holloween?

Halloween or Hallowe'en also known as All Hallows' Eve, is a yearly celebration on October 31, the eve of the  Western Christian feast of All Hollows day. It initiates the triduum of Hallowmas, the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the faithful departed believers.

According to many scholars, All Hallows' Eve is a Christianized feast initially influenced by Celitic harvest festivals with possible pagan roots, particularly the Gaelic Samhain. Other academics maintain that it originated independently of Samhain and has solely Christian roots.

Typical festive Halloween activities include trick or treating (or the related "guising" or trunk or treating), attending  costume parties, decorating, carving pumpkinks into jack o lanterns, lighting bonfires, apple bobbing, visiting haunted attractions playing pranks, telling scary stories, and watching horror films..
