Halloween (or Hallowe'en) is an annual holiday observed on October 31, which commonly includes activities such as trickortreating, attending costume parties, carving jacko'lanterns, bonfires, apple bobbing, visiting haunted attractions, playing pranks, telling scary stories, and watching horror films.
Historian Nicholas Rogers, exploring the origins of Halloween, notes that while "some folklorists have detected its origins in the Roman feast of Pomona, the goddess of fruits and seeds, or in the festival of the dead called Parentalia, it is more typically linked to the Celtic festival of Samhain, whose original spelling was Samuin (pronounced sowan or sowin)".The name is derived from Old Irish and means roughly "summer's end".SnapApple Night (1832) by Daniel apple bobbing and divination games at a Halloween party
