Halloween originated from the ancient Celts. The Celts lived in the present Irish, British and northern French regions 2000 years ago. They celebrated the New Year on November 1. This day marks the end of the summer and the harvest, as well as the beginning of the dark, cold winter, which is often associated with human deaths throughout the year. The Celtics believe that on New Year's Eve, the line between the living and the dead becomes blurred. On the evening of October 31, they celebrated the Day of Death, because people believed that the ghosts of the dead would return to the world.
In addition to creating trouble and destroying crops, the Celtics believe that the presence of an extraordinary soul makes it easier for the Druid or Celtic pastor to predict the future. For a nation that is totally dependent on the turbulent natural world, these prophecies are an important source of comfort and direction in the long, dark winter. To commemorate this incident, the Druids built a huge sacred bonfire, where people gathered to burn crops and animals as a sacrifice to the Celtic god. During the celebration, the Celtics wore costumes made of animal heads and hides and tried to tell each other's fate.
After the celebration, they reignited the fire at the fireside from the sacred campfire, which they extinguished earlier that night to protect them in the coming winter. At the time of AD 43, the Roman Empire had conquered most of the Celtic territory. In the 400 years they ruled the Celtics, two festivals originating in Rome were combined with traditional Celtic celebrations. On May 13, 609, Pope Boniface IV inaugurated the Pantheon of Rome to commemorate all Christian martyrs, while the Catholic Church of the Martyrs was established in the Western Church. Pope Gregory III later extended the festival to include all saints and martyrs, and changed the commemoration from May 13 to November 1.
By the 9th century, the influence of Christianity had spread to the Celtic land, where Christianity gradually integrated and replaced the ancient Celtic rituals. In 1000 AD, the church will set November 2 as the All Saints Festival to commemorate the dead. It is widely believed today that the church is trying to replace the Celtic Day of the Dead with a festival that is recognized by the church. The celebration of All Souls is similar to that of the late summer, with large bonfires, parades and costumes dressed as saints, angels and devils. Due to the strict Protestant belief system, in the colonial New England, the celebration of Halloween was extremely limited. Halloween is more common in Maryland and southern colonies.
Along with the fusion of the beliefs and customs of different European and American Indians, a unique American version of Halloween began to appear. The initial celebrations included a game party, a public event to celebrate the harvest, where neighbors share the story of the dead, telling each other's fate, dancing and singing. The colonial Halloween celebrations also include ghost stories and mischief. In the middle of the 19th century, annual autumn celebrations were common, but Halloween has not been celebrated throughout the country.
In the second half of the 19th century, new immigrants in the United States were rampant. These new immigrants, especially the millions of Irish who have escaped the Irish potato famine, have helped popularize the celebration of Halloween throughout the country. In the 1920s and 1930s, Halloween has become a secular, but community-centered festival, with parades and the town's Halloween party featuring entertainment. Despite the best efforts of many schools and communities, during this time, vandalism began to plague some of the celebrations in many communities. In the 1950s, town leaders succeeded in limiting sabotage, and Halloween evolved into a festival for young people.
Due to the large number of children during the baby boom of the 1950s, parties moved from the town centre to the classroom or home where they could settle down more easily. Between 1920 and 1950, the centuries-old tradition of not giving up sugar was also revived. For the entire community, not giving sugar is a relatively cheap way to share Halloween celebrations. In theory, families can also prevent them from being teased by offering snacks to their neighbors. Therefore, a new American tradition was born and continues to develop. Today, Americans spend about billion a year on Halloween, making it the second-largest commercial holiday in the United States after Christmas.
