Halloween (lühenenud kuju ingliskeelsest nimetusest All Hallows’ Eve, ‘kõigi pühakute õhtu’) ta on läänekristliku pühakutepäeva (1. november) eelõhtul 31. oktoobril tähistatav kalendritähtpäev.
Ajaloolaste arvates on selle juured tõenäoliselt paganlikes ja keldi rituaalides. Halloween on eriti populaarne Põhja-Ameerikas. Halloween’i jooksmine ehk trick-or-treating toimub 31. oktoobril. (allikas: https://et.wikipedia.org/)
Halloween, or Hallowe’en (less commonly known as Allhalloween, All Hallows’ Eve, or All Saints’ Eve), is a celebration observed in many countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows’ Day.
It is at the beginning of the observance of Allhallowtide, the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the faithful departed. In popular culture, the day has become a celebration of horror, being associated with the macabre and supernatural. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween)
