About Halloween
Halloween was originally called All Saints Day, and was a Christian holiday. In its earliest form it was a day to celebrate one's dead ancestors and also to welcome the 'darker half' of the year. It is now an annual holiday that takes place on the last day of October, the 31st, every year. Do you have your costume yet?
