In the US it’s about the candy , the costume and scaring the sh$t out of each other. But it’s really about the candy 🍬

Serious Christians have turned Halloween into the safer “Fall festival” and discourage dressing as witches and ghosts and spirits.

Really interesting! I did know that halloween originated in Ireland though. I’ve heard that Jack-o-lanterns were originally called Jack O’lanterns and were carved out of turnips to ward off evil spirits and when the Irish came to North America it got switched to pumpkins. I don’t know if that’s true, I’m just a swede (like the turnip, haha) who is bad at history.

Ireland carved turnips for Halloween and brought that tradition to America when they emigrated there and then in America pumpkins were readily available so it was easier to carve pumpkins, so technically us Irish did kinda invent pumpkin carving

Honestly, I’m kinda pissed off that people are spreading around this common misconception without fact checking it, I know it’s easy to believe misconceptions but literally no one fact checked it, not a single person decide to fact check it. No, Halloween/Samhain has nothing to do with Christianity

I'm a Pagan so I knew some of this, a lot of modern Pagan holidays come from Ireland. I've always deeply admired the Irish for how they've managed to stay relatively more connected to their Pagan traditions 😁 As much as Christianity tried to either appropriate or abolish Pagan traditions, it's woven into every day life to this day

Growing up in ireland in the 70s and 80s I never saw a pumpkin. It was from memory about the early to mid 90s that they started to become popular in ireland. That also seemed to coincide around that time with trick or treaters getting more in the way of candy etc rather then fruit and nuts etc. So it could be said that in the early to mid 90s in ireland that halloween became more americanised.

Very interesting! To be fair some kinds of Christians in American boycott Halloween because of its Pagan Roots 🎃 others celebrate “All Hallows Eve” which is basically the Christianized version of Halloween.

It seems a reasonable claim that the festival is a harvest one, associated with death and the "other world" mainly because of the slaughtering of livestock that people didn't want to feed over winter, and as a consequence the abundance of feasting food to be shared around so it doesn't spoil.

Gaelic Ireland, which provided the island of Ireland with a unified culture and laws extending to almost 1,600 years, did not identify as Celts (Keltoi) and there is zero evidence the Keltoi ever settled in Ireland from their bases in France, Austria and Germany. So what's all this Celtic malarkey?

It's my understanding that gourd carving actually came from Ireland.
"It was believed that during Samhain the spirits of the dead would travel from house to house, seeking hospitality. To attract these good spirits, Irish households would carve lanterns from gourds and place them near their houses along with offerings to the spirits. And to frighten away evil spirits, they would carve ghoulish faces into these lamps."

Pagan shouldn't really be associated with evil. That's just what the Christians think because it wasn't their religion. It was a rich tradition of culture and beliefs. Funny how despite their best efforts, many Pagan holidays and traditions are incorporated into modern day Christian holidays.

in USA a lot of Christian fundamentalists do not like Halloween. They think it is a celebration of satan or something dumb like that. (Christianity typically and literally demonizes anything that isn't Christian. sigh) Also a question: does bonfire tradition of Halloween tie in with bonfire night in England (where they burn Guy Fawkes and the pope in effigy)? It also seems like a holdover of the pagan times to me. i am especially thinking of how it is depicted in Thomas Hardy's novel, The Return of the Native where he strongly references the pagan roots of the bonfire (and other) traditions of the native people of the heath.

In 18th century America kids actually carved lamps out of gourds and pumpkins. They were called "Bogey lanterns". That's were the "Boogeyman" or "Bogey Man" comes from. The story of the headless horseman that had a Bogey lantern looking for his head in the night comes from New England.

There are definitely lots of Christians who reject Halloween traditions and keep kids back from trick-or-treating in Canada and the USA. I'm not 100% sure if conservative Catholics here are as prone to preach against Halloween as I know various Protestant groups are, but I think it goes along with conservatism and being impulsively afraid of exposing kids to the Harry Potter books. People who really practice Wiccan spirituality and tradition are usually more accepting, even as they object to varying degrees to the villainization of caricatured "witches" that goes along with it.
