Halloween: What is it?
Halloween is a contraction of "All Hallows'
Evening"), also known as Allhalloween,
All Hallows' Eve, or All Saints' Eve, is a yearly
celebration observed in a number of countries
on 31 October, the eve of the Western
Christian feast of All Hallows' Day.
It initiates the three-day religious observance of
Allhallowtide, the time in the liturgical year
dedicated to remembering the dead, including
saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the faithful
departed believers.
Within Allhallowtide, the traditional focus of All
Hallows' Eve revolves around the theme of
using "humor and ridicule to confront the
power of death."
Typical festive Halloween activities include trick-
or-treating (or the related "guising"),
attending costume parties, decorating, carving
pumpkins into jack-o'-lanterns, lighting
bonfires, apple bobbing, visiting haunted
attractions, playing pranks, telling scary stories
and watching horror films.
