    2. Halloween is on October 31st every year, the night before All Saints Day. The word itself means “All Hallows’ Eve”.

      It started 2000 years ago with Celts in Ireland — they believed on this night, the border between living and dead becomes thin. They lit bonfires and wore costumes to scare away evil spirits.
