Halloween at FuckingToy: A Spooky Celebration

The Origins of Halloween

Halloween, as we know it today, has its roots in ancient festivals and traditions. The Celts, a group of people who lived in what is now the United Kingdom, Ireland, and France, celebrated Samhain, a festival marking the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter.

This three-day celebration was believed to be a time when the veil between the living and the dead became thin. The Celts would light bonfires, wear costumes, and leave food offerings for their ancestors.

The Evolution of Halloween

As the Roman Empire expanded its reach, it brought its own traditions and festivals to the region. The Roman festival of Pomona, which honored the goddess of fruit and trees, merged with Samhain, incorporating elements like trick-or-treating and masquerade balls.

The Christian church attempted to eliminate these pagan practices by establishing All Saints' Day and later, All Souls' Day. However, the traditions persisted, and eventually, Halloween became a secular celebration.
