The Origin of Halloween
Halloween is said to originate from the Celtic festival(凯尔特节) called *Samhain(萨温节). It was celebrated at the end of the harvest season and people would light bonfires
(篝火) and don(穿上) costumes to scare off ghosts that were said to roam(漫游) the lands.

万圣节起源于古凯尔特人的萨温节。萨温节是古凯尔特人的新年。萨温节的意思是“夏天的结束”,一般是在十月底天气转冷的时候。萨温节标志着他们一年中最大的转折点——天气的变化,同时也是每个人生活的变化。凯尔特人相信这个神秘时刻打开了生者与亡灵的某种联系。凯尔特人相信死亡之神Samhain在10月31日的晚上会和鬼魂一起重返人间,寻找替身。因此他们燃点火炬,焚烧动物以作为死亡之神的献礼。还会用动物的头或皮毛做成的服饰打扮自己,发出古怪的声音,使死亡之神认不出自己,避过灾难。这就是今天万圣节化妆舞会的由来。过了当晚,鬼魂回到阴间,一切回复平静。萨温节的很多活动都和这种信仰有关,其中许多活动都已演变成了今天万圣节的风俗。
