Halloween History & Significance
History
Halloween has its roots in the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, which marked the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter. The Celts believed that on October 31st, the boundary between the living and dead became blurred, allowing spirits to cross over. The holiday was later influenced by Christian traditions, particularly All Saints' Day (November 1st), and evolved into the modern celebration we know today.
Significance
Halloween represents the human fascination with the supernatural, the unknown, and the boundary between life and death. It provides a safe space to explore fears and anxieties while celebrating creativity, community, and the joy of play. The holiday brings people together through shared experiences of fun, fright, and festivity, creating lasting memories and traditions.
