Happy Halloween!
Halloween - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: Halloween or Hallowe'en (a contraction of "All Hallows' Evening")[5][6] is a yearly celebration observed worldwide on October 31, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows. According to many scholars, All Hallows' Evening was originally influenced by western European harvest festivals and festivals of the dead with possible pagan roots, particularly the Celtic Samhain.[6][7][8] Others maintain that it originated independently of Samhain and has Christian roots.[9]
