Halloween

• The custom of 'trick or treat' probably has several origins, mostly Irish. An old Irish peasant practice called for going door to door to collect money, bread cake, cheese, eggs, butter, nuts, apples, etc., in preparation for the festival of St. Columbus Kill.
• Yet another custom was the begging for soul cakes, or offerings for one's self - particularly in exchange for promises of prosperity or protection against bad luck. It is with this custom the concept of the fairies came to be incorporated as people used to go door to door begging for treats. Failure to supply the treats would usually result in practical jokes being visited on the owner of the house.
• The tradition started with a fear of the god of the dead taking over the sun on November 1, the Celt's new year. They dressed in costumes to hide from the god and some tried to trick him by putting on demon costumes (this is where the whole "scary costume" thing started). The costumes eventually evolved into what it is now. the reason people give away treats on Halloween is because people were afraid of a certain god (I don't know his/her name) and offered treats in return of leaving them alone. This evolved into people giving this for fun.
• Halloween was the celebration the farmers did because it was the end of harvest and they traded goods to each other, but if you didn't give you would get a mean trick that could even kill you.
• There were cultist and on Halloween that warded off evil spirits by wearing mask and lanterns, but instead of a Jack-O'-Lantern they used turnips to scare away the spirits another story of the jack o lantern is that there was a trickster named jack that tricked the devil into climbing up a tree and the devil got stuck, so he cursed Jack's soul to walk in the darkness with just a turnip lantern to guide him. Of course turnips weren't common in the U.S.A so they used Pumpkins And that's the stary of the Jack-O'-Lantern. And if your thinking Halloween is evil its not if any thing the church is evil, the Irish people were visited by the "Saints" and they wanted them to stop worshiping all of their Gods and stop their holidays but the peope loved Halloween and wouldn't give it up. So if you can't beat them join them, so the church made all Hallows Eve.

Around Halloween, the Austrian town of Retz and neighboring communities, not far from Vienna, hold an annual Kürbisfest(pumpkin festival), complete with pumpkins, parties, and a Halloween-Umzug(Halloween parade). The region around Retz has also become known for its annual pumpkin harvest. Known as Bluza in the regional dialect, the pumpkin becomes the centerpiece of ein Fest für die ganze Familie, a festival for the entire family.

Yes its one of there only holidays in fact. They only celebrate three holidays

Just like any other country- Halloween is celebreated on October 31st.

Halloween is celebrated with sadness. Dia de los muertos is celebrated with joy and happiness.

Some parts have adopted Halloween, yes, but the Day of the Dead (Spanish: Día de los Muertos) is still hugely popular, both in Spain and in Mexico (also some parts of South America).

At Halloween in Scotland a turnip or swede would be carved to make a lantern.

Halloween is a carryover from pagan celebrations into Christian traditions, in this case a final free-for-all for demons and spirits of the dead on the eve of All Saints' (All Hallows) Day. The Japanese have similar celebrations in which the spirits of the dead are welcomed back briefly, but they do not celebrate the Western holiday.

Halloween in Scotland is just the same as Halloween in any other country. Children dress up in costumes and trick or treat for sweets. Halloween parties are also very popular as it can be extremely cold in a Scottish October!

i THINK its the same day Americans celebrate it. october 31. if you want to find out for sure look more into it, and maybe you coould get back to me with a definite answer!

The original idea for the HalloweeN series was to have a different story every year,starting with HalloweeN III:Season of the Witch.With the success of HalloweeN HalloweeN II was made,but was inteded to kill Michael forever. The lack of succes caused Debra Hill and John Carpenter to retire from the HalloweeN series,and it also caused its sequel HalloweeN 4:The Return of Michael Myers to have a plot revolving around Michael Myers again.

Some People Just Think They Should Make Scary Halloween Movies Because It Makes The Movie Intresting

I am not sure that there is an show about this. I do know that the story of Casper the friendly ghost has this plot in it. Other movies were then created about his life after being a ghost.
