Halloween Eve falls one day before the Samhain (the end of Summer)- a Celtic festival which occurs on November 1. The belief was that the changing of the season thins the line between mortal and immortal worlds and brings spirits to the Earth.

On All Hallow’s Eve, people were to be dressed like ghosts, witches and other ghastly creatures to not get recognised by the spirits entering the Earth. The tradition continued with dresses and accessories more than a ghost mask.

The popular tradition of ‘Trick or Treat’ among children on Halloween originated from the Celtic festival All Souls’ Day when the children used to visit every door asking for treats which were cakes with crosses on top in return for prayers for the givers. The US came up with the idea of candies which is now followed worldwide to make it more fun and likeable among children.

Stingy Jack, the wicked character, tricked the Devil twice, but when he died, he was neither accepted in Heaven for his wickedness nor in Hell as he made the Devil promise never to take his soul. Ever since then, it is believed that Jack is roaming on the Earth carrying turnips lighted with the Devil’s lump of coal, which is originally the Jack O’Lanterns. The Americans followed the tradition with pumpkins instead of turnips which are easier to carve.
