2The origins of halloween
- Halloween was born in a celtic ritual they
thought that the souls come to alive. - By the eighth century, the Christian Church
became the day on November 1 All Saints Day to
honor all the saints who did not have a special
day of celebration. Over the years these
festivals combined, and most called 'All
Hallowmas "(the mass of all the saints, holy
persons) at All Saints' Day. The night before
became known as "All Hallows Eve" (Eve of All
Saints Day). Over time, his name became
Halloween.
3Important Lengends JackoLantern (Ventura) A
"Jack o'Lantern" is a pumpkin that is empty, and
where is sculpted an evil face. Inside, puts some
light, usually a candle, and is used as Halloween
decorations. That tradition began in Ireland
and Britain, where vegetable lanterns were used
to illuminate, but little by little, because the
pumpkin was the most abundant plant, began to use
more, and finally this was associated with the
festival of Halloween. The name comes from a
legend that says that one man "Jack the mean",
who uses a cross to trap the Devil. There are
several versions of this story One says, that
Jack cheated the devil when he came to take him,
because he got the Devil climb into a tree, and
then put crosses in the tree, so he could not go
down, and made him promise never will take it for
go with him.
4Trick or treat (Alicia)In halloween night, kids
dress up as witches, skeletons, zombies,
vampires and go house to house, knocking and
giving to choose "trick" or "treat".If neighbors
give them candy, is cause they have chosen
"treat", but if they do not give anything to
kids, and choose "trick", will be victims of the
pranks of children in revenge for not getting
candy. This tradition comes from an old legend
that tells that the spirits could roam the world
on Halloween night, and that an evil spirit was
going from house to house asking for trick or
treating, and legend says that it was better to
agree with the spirit, because if they chose
"trick", the spirit put a curse on the house and
who lived in it
