Halloween today is a fun holiday where kids and adults dress up and ask strangers and acquaintances for candy and (rarely) tricks. But what is the origin of this holiday? Like many other holidays, there were serious intentions in celebrations and cultural activities that took place at or around October 31st. It was seen as an important day that connected the dead, living and spiritual worlds in pre-Christian Europe.
