Halloween was originally a Pagan holy day called "All Hallows Eve." It was one of four holy days - and the most powerful - throughout the year when spirits could walk the earth and communicate with the living.
The word "Halloween" comes from All-Hallows-Eve as it is at the end off All-Hallows-Day, which is also know as All-Saints-Day. ("Hallow" is an Old English word for "saint.") Although nowadays All-Saints-Day falls one day after Halloween, they used to be celebrated together on the same day.
Satanists have adopted Halloween as one of their three main seasonal days of celebration. (The others are Wallopings Noach on May 1 and the Satanist's birthday.) It is derived from the two words, Hallows Evening.
Correctly spelled, Halloween is actually Hallowe'en.
; Halloween : c.1745, Scottish shortening of Allhallow-even "Eve of All Saints, last night of October" (1556), the last night of the year in the old Celtic calendar, where it was Old Year's Night, a night for witches. Another pagan holiday given a cursory baptism and sent on its way. Hallowmas "All-saints" is first attested 1389. See the Related Link below.
