Halloween
Halloween originated from the ancient Celtic harvest festival of Samhain. The Celts believed the boundary between the living world and the spirit world became thin on Samhain, allowing spirits to cross over. Christians later incorporated aspects of Samhain into All Hallows' Eve, celebrated on October 31st. Over time, All Hallows' Eve evolved into Halloween with traditions like wearing costumes and trick-or-treating. Today, Halloween maintains folk traditions mixed with modern secular celebrations and superstitions.

The Celts arrived in Britain around 450 BCE and celebrated festivals like Samhain on November 1st to mark the end of the harvest season and the Celtic New Year. On Samhain, the Celts would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off spirits of the dead. The Catholic Church later established All Saints' Day on November 1st. Traditions from Samhain evolved into modern Halloween customs like trick-or-treating, which originated from the Celtic practice of "souling" where people would visit homes while wearing costumes, singing or saying prayers for food or money. Carving faces into vegetables like turnips and pumpkins to scare away spirits also became part of Halloween celebrations. Today, Halloween is

The origins of Halloween can be traced back to ancient Celtic festivals held around the beginning of November to mark the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter. The Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred and the deceased would return to Earth. The Romans later combined their own festivals with the Celtic Samhain festival. Over time, the Christian church designated November 1 as All Saints' Day and the night before became known as All Hallows' Eve, later shortened to Halloween. Traditions vary by region but include carving jack-o'-lanterns, trick-or-treating, wearing costumes and telling scary stories.

Celtic traditions of dressing as ghosts on Halloween to ward off spirits eventually evolved into children dressing up and asking for food door-to-door. This practice spread from Christian Celtic lands in the 19th century where people began dressing as angels and saints on All Hallows' Eve and All Saints' Day. Over time, children in Scotland and Ireland participated by disguising themselves and accepting offerings in exchange for performances rather than prayers for the souls of the dead. After being revived in the United States in the 1920s-1930s, trick-or-treating became popular again after World War II and is now a multi-billion dollar commercial holiday practiced worldwide.

Prohibition was the banning of alcohol in the United States from 1920 to 1933. During this time, illegal speakeasies operated covertly to sell alcohol, like The Green Door Tavern in Chicago. Al Capone was a notorious gangster during Prohibition who organized the St. Valentine's Day Massacre to eliminate a rival gang. Crime museums today still have exhibits showcasing artifacts from Prohibition-era gangs and moonshining operations. Southern states like Virginia saw widespread moonshining during Prohibition as a means of income.

The Celts believed that the souls of the dead visited Earth on the last day of October and had a festival called Samhain to honor them. The Romans conquered the Celts and combined their festivals, spreading the tradition. Halloween originated from the Catholic Church declaring November 1 as All Saints' Day and the night before as Allhallowe'en or All Hallows' Eve, which was shortened to Halloween. Australians celebrate Guy Fawkes Eve similarly but it is not as widespread and focuses more on dances than mischief. Common Halloween costumes include witches, ghosts, skeletons, mummies, werewolves and vampires.
