week 6: task 1: history of Halloween




Halloween is a celebration come from Ireland in A.D 800s . The Celts, who lived at that time believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth on the night before the new year ( november 1st), and they thought that ghosts would be causing trouble and damaging crops; therefore, they celebrated to wish a good havest, a safe dark cold winter, and to welcome a new year.

During the celebration, everyone wore costumes, typically consisting of animal heads and skins, and attempted to tell each other's fortunes, and built huge sacred bonfires, where the people gathered to burn crops and animals as sacrifices to the Celtic deities.

I feel scared because costumes are very strange and the air is terrifying. In short, I'm afraid ghosts.^^
