Re: Halloween In-Process
Quentin Christensen
Hi Zahra,
Do you mean you aren't familiar with Halloween or did I write "[nvda] Halloween" somewhere? If the latter, I'm not sure.
If you aren't familiar with Halloween, it's origins are debated (Christian, Celtic, Pagan), but essentially these days, it's a celebration of all things spooky and creepy (ghosts, ghouls, skeletons, witches), and particularly in Western countries, mostly a chance to decorate or dress up, and play with pumpkins. America, particularly, seems to have embraced the tradition and celebration. Kids like to dress up and knock on nearby houses door's and get given lollies - which does seem a bit odd given we spend the rest of the year telling them not to accept things from strangers :) The common history, broadly, is that November 1 is "All saints day" in the Christian year, a celebration of every saint, known and unknown. The eve of this either being the last chance for wandering souls to seek vengeance on earth before All Saint's Day, or the time when the barriers between worlds are down and ghostly spirits walk the land.
I'm sure plenty of others know more about the holiday than I do, but that's my "Halloween in a paragraph" explanation. Actually if you want to read more, WIkipedia has more than I read on it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween
Kind regards
Quentin.
