The origin of Halloween is in western countries, and October 31st is "Halloween Night" every year.

Halloween is a traditional festival in western countries. Festival night is the most haunted night of the year, so it is also called "Ghost Festival".

At that time, people believed that the dead would return to their former residence on this day to look for living beings, so as to regenerate, and this was the only hope for people to be reborn after death. The main activity of Halloween is Trick-or-treating.

The children dressed up as all kinds of horror, rang the neighbor's doorbell door to door and shouted, "Trick or Treat!" " (meaning trick or treat), the host family (who may also wear scary clothes) will take out some candy, chocolate or small gifts. Some families even use sound effects and cigarette making machines to create a horrible atmosphere.

The candy that children get in one night is often counted by bags, and the whole bag is taken home. October 31st every year is the traditional "Ghost Festival" in the West-Halloween.

However, the atmosphere of this day is far from being as "creepy" as its name suggests. Whenever Halloween comes, children can't wait to put on colorful make-up clothes, put on strange masks, carry a "Jack-o-lantern" and go around asking adults for holiday gifts.

These are the most well-known symbols of Halloween ―― the bizarre Jack-o'-lanterns and the trick of "trick or treat". The Origin of Halloween There are many versions of the legend about the origin of Halloween. It is generally believed that it originated from ancient western European countries before the birth of Christ, mainly including Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

The ancient Western Europeans in these places are called druitt people. Druitt's New Year is on November 1st, New Year's Eve. People in druitt make young people gather in groups, wear all kinds of weird masks and carry carved radish lanterns (pumpkin lanterns are a late custom, and there were no pumpkins in ancient western Europe), and they wander among villages.

At that time, it was actually a celebration of autumn harvest. It is also said to be "Ghost Festival". It is said that the souls of those who died in that year will visit the world on the eve of Halloween. It is said that people should let the visiting ghosts see a good harvest and show rich hospitality to them. All bonfires and lights, in order to scare away ghosts, also illuminate the route for ghosts and guide them to return.

In medieval Central Europe, there was a history of Christianity destroying pagans. However, the sacrificial ceremony before New Year's Eve has never really been eliminated, but it has appeared in the form of witchcraft.

That's why we still have traces of witches' brooms, black cats and spells on Halloween. The word "Halloween" came into being. Many ethnic groups have a celebration party on Halloween, so this day is also called "All Hallow E'en", "The Eve of All Hallows", "Hallows e 'en" or "The eve of All Saintas'Day".

In the end, the convention evolved into "Halloween", which was translated into Halloween night in Chinese. Legend of Halloween: Halloween means "Holy Night".

Today, Halloween has become one of the most popular and popular festivals in a year, and many players celebrate this festival with great enthusiasm. Halloween is on October 31, which is actually a festival to praise autumn, just as May Day is a festival to praise spring.

Druid, a priest in ancient Gaul, Britain and Ireland, had a grand festival to praise autumn, which started at midnight on October 31st and lasted for a whole day until November 1st the next day. They think that on that night, their great god of death, Saman, will call all the ghosts of those who died that year, and these evil spirits will be punished by being born as animals.

Of course, the mere thought of such a ghostly gathering was enough to make the simple-minded fools at that time afraid. So they lit a bonfire and watched these evil spirits closely.

That's how the saying that witches and ghosts are everywhere on Halloween begins. Up to now, some people in some isolated areas of Europe still believe this is true.

Nowadays, all over Europe, people regard Halloween as a good opportunity to have fun, tell ghost stories and scare each other. So people no longer use this festival just to praise Qiu Guang, but let it become a real "carnival".

And facial makeup is one of the traditional Halloween programs. The custom of Halloween One of the interesting contents of Halloween is "Trick or treat". However, this custom did not originate from Ireland, but originated from the Christian Church in Europe in the 9th century.
