Halloween originated from the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, a celebration marking the end of the harvest season and the onset of winter. During Samhain, people believed that the boundary between the living and the dead was blurred, allowing spirits to return to the earth. To ward off these spirits, people would light bonfires and wear costumes. The tradition evolved over time, incorporating elements from Roman and later Christian practices, eventually leading to the modern celebration of Halloween.
