History of Halloween
According to History.com, Halloween is said to be an acient festival of Samhain. For them, this is the time for celebration and superstition where everyone has to light bonfires and wear costumes to fend off bad spirits and ghosts.
"In the eighth century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1 as a time to honor all saints and martyrs; the holiday, All Saints’ Day, incorporated some of the traditions of Samhain. The evening before was known as All Hallows’ Eve and later Halloween. Over time, Halloween evolved into a secular, community-based event characterized by child-friendly activities such as trick-or-treating."
