Halloween (Trick or Treat) 2022 in Dubai, UAE
What is Halloween and why is Halloween celebrated?
The intriguing history of the Halloween festival observed on October 31 each year dates back to Ireland some three thousand years ago. Although its exact origins are still debated, Halloween is believed to have come from the ancient Celtic holiday of Samhain.
The end of the harvest and the arrival of winter were seen by the Celts at this time as a season of death. The living and the dead were thought to communicate, and spirits were thought to be able to travel between them.
Therefore, Halloween theoretically has Christian roots. However, some Christians nowadays prefer to completely avoid the festival since they believe it to be a satanic celebration of demons and curses.
