St. Patrick, belive it or not, was trying to rid the world of druids, he thought they were evil. On the day of honoring the dead came, the druids ran off into the forest, carved pumpkins with scary faces and lit them, then when St. pat's gang came after them they found scary pumpkins in the woods and ran off to their mommy's. So that is how the tradition of pumpkins came about anyway, but honoring the dead is millions of years old. Know we dress up like ghosts and beg for candy.
