Third day of the month of November, and it's my second entry because I missed my first day because of some circumstances, I've already written an article about that one if you wanted to know the reason, you can freely read it in this given title : first day of Novem .I'm really planning to write different Article today, about my day yesterday when I become a photographer of my family because we all hang out after how many months of staying at home. But for some reason I decided to do another entry.
Halloween is widely known through out the world for a thousand of years and I was shocked to know that there are people who didn't know about this one. That's why yeah I'll try to make some entry of it.
Halloween definition
Halloween is the spookiest day of the year it came from the root word "hallow" - or holy person refers to the saints celebrated on All Saints' Day, which is November 1.So basically, Halloween is just an old-fashioned way of saying "the night before All Saints' Day" — also called Hallowmas or All Hallows' Day.
Halloween is celebrated each of the year a night before the first day of November which is October 31. This tradition were celebrated in Celtic Festival of samhain( a powerful and special demon) people back then would lit a bonfire and wear costume because they all belief that with this technique they could wars of demons and ghost to possess their body.
People back then, believed that the ghost of the dead will gonna go walk to earth after October 31. Because they said that it is the weakest gate that divide the alive and the dead people. And that this is the time where Demon Samhain has the strongest power. Because of this the ghost and demon will walk through earth and that it will gonna take alive people to their place right after that day. That's why people think of a way to ward them of and this is by portraying as a dead people. They all wear costume so that the demon will not gonna possessed them. This also work the same as decorating houses and backyards. Ghost will gonna be attracted when they saw a human house and will wait for their prey but when they found out that it's also a ghost they will not gonna enter to it.
Trick or treating
As I remember, this trick or treating was made by an american when they borrowed the celebration of European Tradition.they wear scary costume and went house to house asking for food or money, this practice was used in every year and became a tradition. Around how many years have passed, a community in america makes a move where they made a big celebration for Halloween..all the neighborhood gets together wearing different costume and pranking each another. Parents were encourage by the community to dress as frightening as they could to win the Halloween costume awards. This also one reason why halloween parties became tradition in many part of the world.
