The word Halloweenis first attested in the 16th century and represents a Scottish variant of the fuller All-Hallows'-Even("evening"), that is, the night before All Hallows' Day.[9] Although the phrase All Hallows' is found in Old English (ealra hālgena mæssedæg, mass-day of all saints), All-Hallows-Evenis itself not attested until 1556.[9]
