Halloween. Are you going to celebrate it?



Nowadays it is becoming very popular to celebrate holidays that are not traditional at our country. Lots of people do celebrate St.Valentine's Day, St.Patric's Day and Halloween. But what do we know about these holidays?

Halloween or Hallowe'en (a contraction of "All Hallows' Evening"), also known as All Hallows' Eve, is a yearly celebration observed in a number of countries on October 31, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows. According to many scholars, All Hallows' Eve was originally influenced by western European harvest festivals and festivals of the dead with possible pagan roots, particularly the Celtic Samhain.
