A Quick Halloween History & Last Minute Halloween Help!
Since tomorrow is the big day, we thought we’d share a quick Halloween history refresher for you!
🎃 Halloween’s origins go back over 2,000 years to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain. This festival marked the end of the harvest and the beginning of winter, a time when people believed the boundary between the living and the dead blurred. To ward off spirits, they wore costumes—a tradition that’s still alive today!
👻 Over the centuries, Halloween evolved, incorporating Roman and Christian influences. By the 20th century, it transformed into the candy-filled, costume-wearing celebration we all enjoy today. It only took 2,000 years to get here! 😜
