The Mystical Origins of Halloween:
Halloween is believed to be rooted in the pagan Celtic Samhain rituals. Samhain means summer's end. The Celts followed a lunar calendar, so Samhain signified the end of summer and the end of the lunar year. Celtic villagers wore costumes to appease the spirits who were believed to enter the physical world on the eve of Samhain. Celtic rituals honored the visiting spirits by leaving portions of the harvest, as offerings, outside of the home.
