HAPPY

Halloween!

The word Halloween or Hallowe'en dates back to around 1745 and is of Christian origin. The word Hallowe'en literally means "evening of the Saints". It comes from a Scottish term for All Hallows' Eve.

according to them on that day the ghosts of the dead visited the people who were still alive

the current Halloween celebration originates from the Celtic festival of Semhain, which coincides with the Celtic New Year.

Scripture carefully instructs Christians against participation in pagan practices directly involving witchcraft, the occult, and the worship of other deities.

Celebrating Halloween and the holy days surrounding it reminds us of the reality of Heaven and Hell, the saints, demons, angels, and all the holy souls suffering in purgatory.

Initially, homemade treats such as cookies, popcorn balls, and caramel apples were handed out. But in the 1930s, candy manufacturers saw an opportunity and started to produce individually wrapped candies suitable for Halloween distribution.

Treating

Tricking

The roots of tricking can be traced back to the 1960s when masters of taekwondo, a Korean martial art, began to perform interesting physical feats or "tricks" that were outside the normal boundaries of martial arts. Tricking didn't take off immediately, however.

I like Halloween because it is an inclusive and fun holiday for every age group. Unfortunately it is not celebrated much in my family but I celebrate it with my friends. my favorite costume is the witch one, especially when I was a child. even though I love Halloween I am very afraid of seeing horror films and in fact I don't see them often.
