Happy Halloween is approaching, Halloween, the event strongly associated with the children around the world. In most of the western region, the children celebrate the Halloween by playing trick or treat and also dressed up in their favorite and colorful costumes. In the other part of the world the Christian community celebrates the event during the all souls and all saints days in altogether in a different way, in which they visit the graveyards to the graves of the loved ones, make them clean, pray for them after lighting the place with the candles and flowers during the night.
The original theme behind the event of Halloween is quite interesting. The Halloween is believed to be started from the Celtic festival Samhain of ancients. They believe that on the day of 31st October the spirits of the dead people visits the earth to have a get together with their relatives. Event the Priests claimed that they do communicate with the spirits, the spirits told them about the future and on the provided predictions of the spirits they guide the rest of people alive on board.
Well, on the day of Halloween the people celebrates the day by dressing up in animal’s costumes and they also wear different types of animal masks. Wearing animal masks and costumes is just to disguise the visiting spirits to make their bodies safe from the spirits penetration and occupation. They also arrange the lighting with the help of bonfire and they also sacrifice the animals and the crops for the Celtic deities.
I hope everyone concerned and connected with the Halloween is ready to celebrate the event with all the respect and honor.
Wish you Happy Halloween.
