The holiday of Halloween probably started, 2,000 years ago, in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and northern France. It started in the civilization of the ancient Celtics. The Celts celebrated their new year on November 1st. Although this seems weird to us, this was the end of their growing season and the beginning of the harvest (the season when the crops are done growing and are gathered from the field). The new year was the beginning of winter, which was a dark and cold time that was usually associated with death. Many people died during the winter because of lack of food or freezing temperatures.

The Celts were very superstitious. They believed on October 31st the boundary between the world of the living and the dead was very weak. They believed ghosts could travel over, just for the night, to the land of the living. Ghosts could damage crops and play tricks on human beings. To keep the ghosts away, the Celts held a festival known as Samhain (pronounced sow-in). At Samhain, the Celts would light bonfires and burn animals and part of their crops as a sacrifice to their gods. To keep away the ghosts, the Celts would wear costumes made of animal heads and skins. Samhain wasn’t all bad for the Celts. They believed the weakened boundary between the land of the living and the dead allowed their priests, known as Druids, to see the future.
