This is Halloween! By Erika Díaz León

Halloween or Halloween Night is a modern celebration that began with a Celtic holiday (Samhain) on the autumn solstice

Halloween has been celebrated since 100 A. D. and is currently celebrated internationally on October 31

The Celts believed that this world and that of spirits came with the arrival of the Samhain, which let spirits or ghosts pass into our world

Family ancestors were invited andhonored, while harmful spirits were estranged. That's why on Halloween people disguised themselves as monsters and horrible things, to scare

In 1840 this party arrived in the United States and Canada by Irish immigrants. It was they who created the habit of carving Jack into the pumpkins

In the eighteenth century in Asturias the children ordered food at the doors of the houses during that night carrying lamps in their hands. In many municipalities of Castile the houses were decorated with pumpkins that were made holes inside to simulate a face, then a candle or light was introduced inside to invoke the good spirits and frighten people on that night of terror. In many Villages in Madrid people dressed in black and ringed the bell until the early hours. In addition, lights were brought to cemeteries to guide the dead and the graves of the deceased were cleaned.
