Slide Description:
The history of Halloween, like many other modern European holidays, has its origins in the pre-Christian era. It was then that the people of the Celts were settled by many tribes in what is now France, Ireland and Great Britain. The ancient Celts had their own language, pagan beliefs and a calendar that divided the year into two halves - summer and winter. The darkest part of the year, winter, when agricultural work was impossible, began in November, and October 31st was the last day of the outgoing year. This number was also the last day of the harvest.

Symbols of the holiday The night before the holiday, All Saints Day, is celebrated according to changed times, but still retaining the main features, Celtic beliefs. On Halloween, the celebrants dress in carnival costumes, parties and festivities. The main symbols of this day are considered to be a lantern carved from a large pumpkin. The Celts made such lamps on the occasion of the harvest, and also so that lost dead souls would quickly find their way to the other world with the help of a lantern. A traditional vegetable was previously fodder turnip, but with the arrival of the holiday in the United States, pumpkin became more popular, as a vegetable, more common and cheaper in the fall season.

Slide Description:
Lamp Jack It is believed that Jack was a blacksmith, very greedy and hungry for money and booze. The inhabitants of his village were so tired of the annoying drinking companion that there was simply no one left to have a glass with him. Then Jack offered to drink a bottle at a local eatery to Lucifer himself. The devil agreed to keep him company. And when the time came to pay for the drink, Jack suggested that the naive Satan turn into a coin, to which he also agreed. The cunning blacksmith, without thinking twice, immediately hid the coin in his pocket, where a cross, prepared in advance, was already waiting. Lucifer fell into a trap and could not get out of the trap where the image of the Savior was. Jack surrendered to Satan's persuasion to release him in exchange for his promise to help the blacksmith in every possible way in business.

Slide Description:
Lamp Jack the Devil fell into Jack's trap the second time, when the cunning blacksmith begged him to get apples from the very top of the tree. Lucifer, who climbed to the top, simply could not get off it, since Jack painted a cross on the crown of an apple tree. This time, Satan managed to escape by promising Jack not to take his soul after death. The blacksmith-drinker let Lucifer go and lived a carefree life, and when the hour of destruction came, they refused to accept his soul both in Paradise and in Hell. Unnecessary to neither the devil nor God, the blacksmith began to wander in search of Purgatory. He illuminated his path with a lantern cut out of a hollow turnip, in which the remains of coals smoldered.

Lamp Jack Lamps made of vegetables, traditionally made from turnips, were left by the British on the porch of their homes on All Saints Day in order to ward off ill-disposed spirits from their homes. In North America, this tradition became widespread only in the nineteenth century, when European emigrants settled in the country. At the same time, Jack's Lamp became a direct symbol of Halloween only at the very end of the 19th century.

Just like in Russia on Christmastide, children dressed in costumes go from door to door and hope to get sweets or coins from their neighbors.

Traditional Festive Table In Ireland, a special bread called "barmbrak" is traditionally baked for Halloween. This is a sweet bun with raisins, in which various objects are hidden - a ring, a coin, a pea, a piece of wood and a piece of cloth. By the received object, you can find out your fate, so a ring means a quick wedding, a piece of wood - loneliness or divorce, a pea - celibacy, cloth - failure in money matters, and a coin - wealth. Similar breads, cut into butter toast, can now be found throughout the United Kingdom. In its factory versions, objects that represent the future are made of plastic or edible material.

Halloween in Russia and the World Initially, Halloween was celebrated only in countries that inherited Celtic culture. Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales are the regions where this holiday was formed. Since the end of the nineteenth century, emigrants have spread the tradition of celebrating Halloween in the United States, where it gained special popularity and took on its modern look. In the twentieth century, when borders became a very ghostly concept, this cheerful and vibrant holiday began to gradually spread throughout the world. Today, besides the countries of America and Europe, Halloween is popular in Asian countries. The holiday came to Russia in the nineties and is still considered very exotic. For Russians, Halloween is primarily an opportunity to hold a fun carnival party, with the opportunity to dress up in the costumes of mystical characters.
Holiday party "Halloween". History of origin and rules of celebration.
On a holiday, the hero of the occasion is necessarily given gifts - memorabilia or something practical - depending on the character and mood of the birthday person. But all this if you are invited to a birthday party to friends or close people. However, there are also national holidays, such as New Years or International Women's Day, when you can give something special and unusual, thereby expressing your respect or feelings. So, for example, a luxurious handmade card with a dedication, a bouquet of 100 roses ... But you never know what else can become an excellent present! The main thing is to make sense and on time.However, today we will talk about a special holiday that until recently was considered alien to our culture and traditions - about Halloween. The modern holiday Halloween (from the English Halloween) is celebrated on the eve of Dnya of all saints, namely at night with October 31 on Nov. 1... Halloween is celebrated mainly in English-speaking countries, but recently there has been a tendency to celebrate it both in Europe and in Japan, Korea and Australia. This unusual holiday included two completely opposite traditions: Christian - faith in the saints and worship them, and Celtic - worship of dark spirits.
What is the story behind Halloween?For the first time the word Halloween was mentioned in the 16th century, as the Scots abbreviated English phrase "All-Hallows-Even", which translated means "All Saints' Evening". The history of the holiday is rooted in the ancient traditions of the Celts in Ireland and Scotland. These countries are considered to be the birthplace of Halloween. The famous historian Nicholas Rogers suggests that Halloween appeared only after the Celtic pagan holiday - Saiman (Samhain), translated from Old Irish - "end of summer." For the first time, Saiman was mentioned in the literature of old Ireland in the 10th century, and later the month will be named so - November. Saiman is a holiday of all the peoples of the British Isles, which was associated with something supernatural, dark, dead. All Saints Day is gradually replacing Saiman: with this begins the formation of the future holiday of Halloween. In the 16-19 centuries, a new tradition appeared - to go home and ask for sweets on the night of October 31, to be naughty, wear fabric masks, wear Jack's lamp.
Halloween symbols.The holiday has many symbols, but Jack's lamp is still the main one. Celtic traditions included the making of pumpkin lamps that helped deceased souls find their way to purgatory. Jack's Lantern features an ominous smiling face carved into a pumpkin. For the first time such a lamp appeared in Great Britain and it was carved into a turnip. This fruit, according to people, protected their homes from evil spirits on All Saints Day. When Halloween began to be celebrated in the United States, a pumpkin lamp was carved.
What are the traditions of Halloween?Celebrating the holiday, you need to dress up in various Halloween costumes, which you can buy on the eve of All Saints Day in any specialty store. The most popular are the costumes of characters from well-known horror films, such as the mummy, witch, vampire costume and others. Black and orange dominate modern Halloween decor. Like any holiday, Halloween has its own theme in music. The composition of songs for this holiday is based on the ambient genre, which consists of frightening sounds: creaks, screams, howling of wolves, etc. Bobby Pickett's contemporary song "MonsterMash" has become a Halloween anthem. This holiday is associated with the work of the Midnight Syndicate group, which to some extent has become synonymous with Halloween. IN 2010 The band released an entire album entitled "Halloween Music Collection" dedicated to Halloween. The tradition of going from house to house and begging for sweets dates back to the Middle Ages and was directly related to Christmas. However, in Ireland and England, the poor were begging for sweets on the eve of All Saints' Day, promising to pray for the souls of the deceased relatives of the owner. A special term "Trick-or-treat", actively used in the United States since 1939 g., translated as "joke or treat". Over time, this phrase was transformed, new options appeared, and already by 1940 g. became unchanged and sounded like this: "Wallet or life." Today, such a comic phrase can be heard in almost any country and not only on the eve of All Saints Day.

After the collapse of the USSR, he gradually began to gain popularity in Russia. But, if in America the holiday has a mystical and more positive meaning, then in Russia it is nothing more than a masquerade with an abundance of music.

Conclusion In order for a holiday to become a nationwide one, it is not enough to appoint it from above or simply invent it and take it from other nations. Most holidays have deep roots in the past, with historical and religious roots.
