What is Halloween?
Halloween is a mixture of customs of pagan and Christian origins. It originated from an ancient Celtic seasonal pageant (known as Samhain) to mark the end of the harvest and to remember the dead that is well known from sunset on October 31 to sundown on November 1.
While now not an legitimate holiday, it is determined in a number of nations round the world, often within the West (North America and Europe) however also more and more in Asian international locations, as it presents commercial possibilities. In the United States, it's far envisioned to be the festival with the second-maximum quantity of consumer spending after Christmas.
Halloween is observed by way of All Saints' Day (for which it's miles the vigil) on November 1 and All Souls' Day on November 2. Together the 3 days of remembrance of the lifeless form the triduum (a spiritual observance lasting three days) of Hallowtide. People traditionally visit the graves of deceased loved ones all through this time. It is related to the Mexican holiday Day of the Dead.
