• The November 1st festival was called Samhain (pronounced "sow-en") and lasted for three days. Many people would parade in costumes made from the skins and heads of their animals. This festival became the first Halloween.

In the year 835 AD the Roman Catholic Church would make November 1st a church holiday to honor all the saints. This day was called All Saint's Day, or Hallowmas, or All Hallows. Years later the Church would make November 2nd a holy day. It was called All Souls Day and was to honor the dead. It was celebrated with big bonfires, parades, and people dressing up as saints, angels and devils.
