A History of Halloween Presentation Transcript

Slide 1 - A History of Halloween
Slide 2 - Halloween's origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain. The Celts lived 2,000 years ago in the area that is now Ireland, the United Kingdom, and northern France. They celebrated their new year on November 1. This day marked the end of summer and of the harvest, and marked the beginning of the dark, cold winter. The cold winter was a time of year that was often associated with human death at this time.
Slide 3 - Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. They celebrated Samhain on the night of October 31, and they believed that the ghosts of the dead could return to earth on this night. In addition to causing trouble and damaging crops, Celts thought that the presence of these spirits made it easier for the Druids, or Celtic priests, to make predictions about the future. These predictions were an important source of comfort and direction during the long, dark winter. At a time when people relied heavily on their crops as a source of food, the Celts would have done anything which they thought would help them through the hard winter.
Slide 4 - To celebrate the event, Druids built huge sacred bonfires, where the people gathered to burn crops and animals as sacrifices to the Celtic gods. During the celebration, the Celts wore costumes which would disguise them from the spirits. Typically these costumes consisted of animal heads and skins.
Slide 5 - Halloween is an old tradition here in Ireland and also in Scotland. In these countries, people dressed up and carried lanterns made of turnips. When people moved from Ireland and Scotland to the United States and other places around the world, they started using pumpkins instead of turnips. This is where pumpkin lanterns were first created. Today it is very easy to buy pumpkins in your local supermarket, and many homes carve these into scary faced lanterns.
Slide 6 - There was also a tradition of giving food to the spirits. As the years went by this tradition changed to a situation where people gave food to poor people. This is where our modern day ‘trick-or-treating’ comes from.
Slide 7 - Thank You
