Some days before Halloween, we learned and worked some history about it. Finally, we wrote this summary.
HALLOWEEN
Bonfires and costumes were used to ward off ghosts and spirits at Samhain, a Celtic festival.
Celts believed that this night blurred the boundary between the living and the dead.
A cut to the 8th century pope Gregory III chose November 1st as the All Saints Day.
Over time, All Saints Day adopted some Samhain traditions named the night before All Hallows Eve or Halloween.
Traditions: Trick or treat, costumes, haunted houses, pumpkins, scary stories, etc.
