• Neither the word Halloween or the date 31 October
  are mentioned in any Anglo-Saxon text indicating
  that it was just an ordinary day a thousand years
  ago.
• From the Medieval period (1066 - 1485) through to
  the 19th century, there is no evidence that 31
  October was anything else other than the eve of
  All Saints Day.
• From the 19th Century to the present day, 31st
  October has increasingly acquired a reputation as
  a night on which ghost, witches, and fairies, are
  especially active.
• Halloween comes from All Hallow Even, the eve
  (night before) All Hallows day. Therefore,
  Halloween is the eve of All Saints Day.

• Many Halloween stories and games are hundreds of
  years old. Halloween customs date back to a time
  when people believed in devils and witches and
  ghosts.
• They thought that these evil spirits could do all
  kinds of damage to property. Some people tried to
  ward off witches by painting magic signs on their
  barns. Others tried to scare them away by nailing
  a piece of iron such as a horseshoe over the
  door.
• The children draw pictures or write on the
  windows with soap, decorate the rooms with paper
  moons, witches, bats, ghosts and black cats. The
  guests try to frighten one another by telling
  ghosts stories around an open fire.
