Interesting Random Factoid-

1. History of Halloween- Ancient Celtic Farmers believed that one day a year the season of life meets the season of death. And spirits walk the earth on that day.

• That day was called sow in. Means- summers end

• Druid priests would try to predict if the their villages would survive the winter

• Ordinary Celts would light bonfires and would use demonic disguises to repel the spirits and to protect themselves from the spirits that walked on that day.

• Pope Gregory the Third established all Hallows day on November 1 to honor all Saints, past and future. And to absorb the Celts and their druid ways.

• Sow in became known as all Hallows Eve = Halloween

• Puritans that arrived in America and left those traditions behind.

• Until the Irish Potato famine sent about a million Irish to the Americas.

• They brought their folklore with them. The folklore changed to suit the times and the bonfires turned into fires in gourds= Jack o'Lanterns

• The disguises turned into scary costumes.

• The tradition of treats which came from going to homes and praying for the souls of loved ones (souling) in exchange for small cakes, became the candy giving we know now. - ALLEGEDLY

• Capitalism has made our Halloween very profitable and what we now today! -Merica
