Halloween is scary yet it is called happy Halloween why??
Answers
Explanation:
The tradition originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts. In the eighth century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1 as a time to honor all saints. Soon, All Saints Day incorporated some of the traditions of Samhain.
Why Halloween is scary?
Samhain was a celebration of the end of the harvest season, meaning 'summer's end'. Gaels in this period are thought to have believed this time of year was also when the walls between the worlds were thin and porous and enabled spirits to pass through. ... Bonfires would also be lit to scare off evil spirits
Halloween is associated with elaborate costumes, haunted houses and, of course, candy, but it's also linked to a number of risks, including pedestrian fatalities and theft or vandalism. Oct. 31 may be one of the most dangerous days of the year for your children, home, car and health.
