The ancient festival known as Samhain included costumes as protection from the evil spirits thought to show up on the day.
no special customs for autumn festivals, but few people will dress in traditional Han's clothes, but for ancient people, they are just normal dress... don't expect to see Halloween costumes or ridiculous things...
The Ancient Celts
Halloween is celebrated as a tradition that originated from ancient Celtic festivals, particularly the festival of Samhain. It is believed that on this day, the boundary between the living and the dead is blurred, allowing spirits to roam the earth. Over time, Halloween has evolved into a fun and festive holiday where people dress up in costumes, go trick-or-treating, and participate in various spooky activities.

Halloween began to merge with Catholic festivals around the 7th century when Pope Boniface IV established All Saints' Day on November 1st, originally intended to honor saints and martyrs. This date coincided with the Celtic festival of Samhain, where people celebrated the end of the harvest and believed that the boundary between the living and the dead was blurred. Over time, the customs and traditions of both Samhain and the Christian observance evolved, leading to the modern celebration of Halloween.

Evil spirits, witches, ghosts and demons also roamed, but could be placated by a feast.
