Halloween`s day



Hello¡¡ I think that: The Halloween`s day is an excuse to dress and another in the evening of October 31. One reason to have fun with your friends. A reason to celebrate. All this is Halloween, the holiday of terror, witches, ghosts and monsters that will come tonight. But it is a macabre feast which is celebrated every year worldwide.

Information

Tonight has its origins in Ireland, 3000 years ago as a festival celebrating the Druids (priests called Celtic tribes in Europe) to celebrate the day that Saman, the god of the dead, invoking the evil spirits to meet, the last night year to discuss the events of the future and also to visit their former homes on earth. Throughout history has been mixing paganism and Christianity at the time of holding this event. Today is celebrated by visiting the homes of neighbors, demanding candy in exchange for not making any harm or mischief, that they do so dressed in witches, devils, death, monsters, vampires. Usually the bags are reasons that lead to hollow pumpkins, black cats, etc.. In the United States are held parades where children march through the streets with their costumes. In Spain, "this conclusion does not exist" as such, only the solemnity of the night of the dead, visiting cemeteries. Although slowly, in big cities, Halloween is celebrated with feasts and celebrations in many premises.
