But by the way, what is the origin of Halloween?
Its existence is much older and the party was born not so far from home. Halloween is indeed derived from the celebration of Samain (Irish name) or Samonios (Gallic name), created by the Celts. This religious festival, led by druids, was held at the end of autumn (at the end of the harvest) and marked the beginning of a new year. In Ireland and Gaul, people feared this Samhain night, during which evil spirits could rage. To avoid this “black” presence and ward off the danger, the inhabitants lit fires in the open air. This night was also a “meantime” between the world of the living and the dead. The Celts left their doors open so that the deceased of their families could return for a few hours among the living. This tradition died out somewhat with the arrival of the Romans in Gaul and of Christianity in these regions, around the 5th century. Pope Boniface IV even declared in 610 that this holiday was pagan and decided to create All Saints Day, the feast of all saints. Celebrated at this time on May 13, All Saints’ Day will change date in the 8th century and will be fixed on 1er november. Some historians clearly see a reference to the Celtic festival of Samain, a desire to Christianize Samain. A reference that will also find an echo when the Feast of the Dead is instituted in the 10th century on November 2, the day after All Saints Day.
