The Origin of Halloween begins with the ancient Celtics (or Druids) and a festival known as Samhain that ushered in the winter season. This festival was held on October 31st, when the ancients believed that the lines between the world of the living and the realm of the dead would become blurred. They believed that the non living would come back to life and cause harm to the living such as sickness, loss of crops and more.
