Introduction

Halloween is a joyous celebration that has now spread to much of the World.

It usually takes place on the Eve of 31 October, the next day is the Christian feast All Saint´s Day with remembering the dead. The name comes from Old English “All Hallows Eve”.

The tradition was brought by Scottish and Irish immigrants to America and many believe it is really an old pagan Celtic tradition, the Samhain (End of Summer) which celebrated the end of the harvest and was carried over into Christianity.

One of the traditions of Halloween is dressing up in costumes, for partying or for trick-or-treat, another Halloween tradition of children going round the neighbourhood demanding sweets.

We celebrate this happy event and hope you will enjoy our selection of photos and hope they will inspire you.
