                                          The History of Halloween

There are a lot of different ideas about how Halloween started.
One idea is that this tradition began thousands of years ago with the Celts (in England, Scotland, Ireland and Cornwall). The Celtic people celebrated New Year's Day on November 1st. To protect themselves against the winter, they created some activities to scare off evil spirits the night of October 31st.
