A horror story turned into a global holiday

in #ua5 years ago


The most "horrifying" day of the year is "Halloween" or "Day of Panic", celebrated in Western and even Arabic countries by wearing scary costumes and distributing sweets to children.

Halloween coincides with the last day of October every year. On Wednesday, millions of people around the world will be celebrating their hideous masks, decorating homes and giving candy to children, as usual.

But what is the reality of "Halloween," and how did it begin?

The origin of "Halloween" is the Samhin Festival, a religious festival for Catholics in Britain and parts of Europe, intended to terrorize evil spirits that appear after the end of summer
The Gaelic civilization in Britain considered the end of the summer as the time when the world of the dead was intertwined with the real world, pushing lives out and sharing the rest of life with the rest of humanity.

This day was later known as "The Evening of All Ghosts" or "First Halo Yves" and comes on the day before the Saints' Day, on November 1st.

But Halloween had its real start in the United States when he brought his idea of ​​North America, Irish immigrants, in the 19th century.
The idea developed when some children and teenagers began to wear "horrific" costumes during Halloween to scare the inhabitants of neighboring houses as a kind of humor.

The idea of ​​celebrating Halloween for older people has also come up in recent decades, to the day when children and young people are celebrating at the same time, in different ways.

Halloween fever has reached all the nations of the world, and people around the world have been celebrating the day with scary or funny costumes.
