Ich wish everybody a Happy Halloween, may you enjoy your day and parties....... ------------
Halloween (or Hallowe'en), a contraction of All-Hallows-Even ("evening"), is an annual holiday observed on October 31, which commonly includes activities such as trick-or-treating, attending costume parties, carving jack-o'-lanterns, bonfires, apple bobbing, visiting haunted attractions, playing pranks, telling scary stories, and watching horror films.Historian Nicholas Rogers, exploring the origins of Halloween, notes that while "some folklorists have detected its origins in the Roman feast of Pomona, the goddess of fruits and seeds, or in the festival of the dead called Parentalia, it is more typically linked to the Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-an or sow-in)", derived from the Old Irish Samuin meaning "summer's end".[1] Samhain was the first and by far the most important of the four quarter days in the medieval Irish calendar[2][3] and, falling on the last day of Autumn, it was a time for stock-taking and preparation for the cold winter months ahead.[1] There was also a sense that this was the time of year when the physical and supernatural worlds were closest and magical things could happen.[2][3] To ward off these spirits, the Irish built huge, symbolically regenerative bonfires and invoked the help of the gods through animal and perhaps even human sacrifice.[1]

Halloween is also thought to have been heavily influenced by the Christian holy days of All Saints' Day (also known as Hallowmas, All Hallows, Hallowtide) and All Souls' Day.[4] Falling on November 1st and 2nd respectively, collectively they were a time for honoring the Saints and praying for the recently departed who had yet to reach heaven. By the end of the 12th century they had become days of holy obligation across Europe and involved such traditions as ringing bells for the souls in purgatory and "souling", the custom of baking bread or soul cakes for "all crysten [christened] souls".[5]
In Britain the rituals of Hallowtide and Halloween came under attack during the Reformation as protestants denounced purgatory as a "popish" doctrine incompatible with the notion of predestination.[4] In addition the increasing popularity of Guy Fawkes Night from 1605 on saw Halloween become eclipsed in Britain with the notable exception of Scotland.[6] Here, and in Ireland, they had been celebrating Samhain and Halloween since the early Middle Ages,[7] and it is believed the Kirk took a more pragmatic approach towards Halloween, viewing it as important to the life cycle and rites of passage of local communities and thus ensuring its survival in the country.[6]
North American almanacs of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century give no indication that Halloween was recognized as a holiday.[8] The Puritans of New England, for example, maintained strong opposition to the holiday[8] and it was not until the mass Irish and Scottish immigration during the 19th century that the holiday was introduced to the continent in earnest.[8] Initially confined to the immigrant communities during the mid-nineteenth century, it was gradually assimilated into mainstream society and by the first decade of the twentieth century it was being celebrated coast to coast by people of all social, racial and religious backgrounds.[9]
Trick-or-treating is a customary celebration for children on Halloween. Children go in costume from house to house, asking for treats such as candy or sometimes money, with the question, "Trick or treat?" The word "trick" refers to a (mostly idle) "threat" to perform mischief on the homeowners or their property if no treat is given. In some parts of Scotland children still go guising. In this custom the child performs some sort of trick, i.e. sings a song or tells a ghost story, to earn their treats.
The practice of dressing up in costumes and begging door to door for treats on holidays dates back to the Middle Ages and includes Christmas wassailing. Trick-or-treating resembles the late medieval practice of souling, when poor folk would go door to door on Hallowmas (November 1), receiving food in return for prayers for the dead on All Souls' Day (November 2). It originated in Ireland and Britain,[5] although similar practices for the souls of the dead were found as far south as Italy.[19] Shakespeare mentions the practice in his comedy The Two Gentlemen of Verona (1593), when Speed accuses his master of "puling [whimpering or whining] like a beggar at Hallowmas."[20]
In Scotland and Ireland, Guising – children disguised in costume going from door to door for food or coins – is a traditional Halloween custom, and is recorded in Scotland at Halloween in 1895 where masqueraders in disguise carrying lanterns made out of scooped out turnips, visit homes to be rewarded with cakes, fruit and money.[13] The practice of Guising at Halloween in North America is first recorded in 1911, where a newspaper in Kingston, Ontario reported children going "guising" around the neighborhood.[21]
American historian and author Ruth Edna Kelley of Massachusetts wrote the first book length history of the holiday in the U.S; The Book of Hallowe'en (1919), and references souling in the chapter "Hallowe'en in America";
The taste in Hallowe'en festivities now is to study old traditions, and hold a Scotch party, using Burn's poem Hallowe'en as a guide; or to go a-souling as the English used. In short, no custom that was once honored at Hallowe'en is out of fashion now.[22]

In her book, Kelley touches on customs that arrived from across the Atlantic; "Americans have fostered them, and are making this an occasion something like what it must have been in its best days overseas. All Hallowe'en customs in the United States are borrowed directly or adapted from those of other countries".[23]
While the first reference to "guising" in North America occurs in 1911, another reference to ritual begging on Halloween appears, place unknown, in 1915, with a third reference in Chicago in 1920.[24]
The earliest known use in print of the term "trick or treat" appears in 1927, from Blackie, Alberta, Canada:
Hallowe'en provided an opportunity for real strenuous fun. No real damage was done except to the temper of some who had to hunt for wagon wheels, gates, wagons, barrels, etc., much of which decorated the front street. The youthful tormentors were at back door and front demanding edible plunder by the word “trick or treat” to which the inmates gladly responded and sent the robbers away rejoicing.[25]
The thousands of Halloween postcards produced between the turn of the 20th century and the 1920s commonly show children but do not depict trick-or-treating.[26] The editor of a collection of over 3,000 vintage Halloween postcards writes, "There are cards which mention the custom [of trick-or-treating] or show children in costumes at the doors, but as far as we can tell they were printed later than the 1920s and more than likely even the 1930s. Tricksters of various sorts are shown on the early postcards, but not the means of appeasing them".[27] Trick-or-treating does not seem to have become a widespread practice until the 1930s, with the first U.S. appearances of the term in 1934,[28] and the first use in a national publication occurring in 1939.[29]
Costumes
Main article: Halloween costume
People dressing in Halloween Costumes in Dublin.
Halloween costumes are traditionally modeled after supernatural figures such as monsters, ghosts, skeletons, witches, and devils. Over time, the costume selection extended to include popular characters from fiction, celebrities, and generic archetypes such as ninjas and princesses.
Dressing up in costumes and going "guising" was prevalent in Scotland at Halloween by the late 19th century.[13] Costuming became popular for Halloween parties in the US in the early 20th century, as often for adults as for children. The first mass-produced Halloween costumes appeared in stores in the 1930s when trick-or-treating was becoming popular in the United States.
Halloween costume parties generally fall on, or around, 31 October, often falling on the Friday or Saturday prior to Halloween
GERMAN:
Halloween [hæloʊˈiːn] (eingedeutscht [ˈhɛloviːn]) von All Hallows' Eve (Allerheiligenabend) benennt ursprünglich Volksbräuche am Vorabend von Allerheiligen in der Nacht vom 31. Oktober zum 1. November, die zunächst vor allem in Irland gefeiert wurden. Die zugehörigen Bräuche wurden von irischen Einwanderern ab 1830 in den USA als Erinnerung an die europäische Heimat aufgegriffen und ausgebaut.
Im Laufe der Zeit entwickelte sich Halloween neben Weihnachten und dem Thanksgiving-Fest zu einer der wichtigsten Feiern in den Vereinigten Staaten.
Im Zuge der Irischen Renaissance nach 1830 wurden in der frühen volkskundlichen Literatur eine Kontinuität der Halloweenbräuche seit der Keltenzeit und Bezüge auf heidnische und keltische Traditionen wie das Samhainfest angenommen. Bekannt und bis heute zitiert werden entsprechende Mutmaßungen des Religionsethnologen James Frazer.
Seit den 1990er Jahren verbreiten sich Halloween-Bräuche, angefangen in Frankreich[1] auch im kontinentalen Europa, wobei es deutliche regionale Unterschiede gibt. Dabei wurden Bräuche wie das Rübengeistern in das auch kommerziell sehr erfolgreiche Halloweenumfeld adaptiert, genauso wie traditionelle Kürbisanbaugebiete wie die Steiermark Halloween aufnahmen.[1]
Das Wort Halloween, in älterer Schreibweise Hallowe’en, ist eine Kontraktion des Wortes All Hallows' Eve (Allerheiligenabend). Wie auch bei Heiligabend ist der Vorabend des Festtages gemeint, da aus liturgischer Sicht der Tag mit Sonnenuntergang endet und der Abend bereits Beginn des Folgetages ist. Der Bezug von Halloween zum Totenreich ergibt sich demnach aus den christlichen Feiertagen Allerheiligen und Allerseelen, die in Europa im 7. bis 8. Jahrhundert eingeführt wurden.
Die Genese des Festtags Allerheiligen selbst geht auf die bereits 609 erfolgte Weihung des römischen Pantheons, einem ehemals "allen Göttern" gewidmeter bedeutender heidnischer Tempel, durch die römische Kirche zurück.[2] Als Sancta Maria ad Martyres wurde dieser zum Gedenken aller Märtyrer gewidmet und neu interpretiert. Im Fränkischen Reich führte Ludwig der Fromme das Fest Allerheiligen im Jahr 835 ein. So wird an Allerheiligen traditionell der Gemeinschaft der Heiligen gedacht, die nach christlichem Glauben das ewige Leben erlangt haben. Am 2. November an Allerseelen sollte durch Gebete und Fürbitten sowie durch gute Taten (zum Beispiel Geschenke an bettelnde Kinder) das Leiden der Toten im Fegefeuer gelindert werden.
Das Allerheiligenfest, das sich von Rom aus verbreitete, wurde ursprünglich allerdings am 13. Mai gefeiert, das Datum wurde erst von Papst Gregor III. und endgültig von Gregor IV. auf den 1. November verlegt. Wesentliche, auch im heutigen Brauchtum noch erkennbare Aspekte von Allerheiligen und Allerseelen und damit auch Halloween beziehen sich auf die Vorstellung des Fegefeuers und in dem Zusammenhang dem Bedürfnis, der Seelen Verstorbener in diesem Zwischenstadium zu gedenken oder ihre baldige Erlösung zu erbitten.
Bereits im Zuge der Hochmittelalterlichen wie später im Zuge der Irische Renaissance wurden einige der christlichen Aspekte bereits wieder auf tatsächliche oder angenommene heidnische Traditionen projiziert. Die entsprechende Wechselwirkung und zugehörige Widersprüche sind bis in die Gegenwart verbreitet. Zudem sind der Charakter als Unruhenacht wie die Erneuerung und Weiterverbreitung in mehreren Wanderungsbewegungen Gegenstand volkskundlicher Forschung und machen mit den besonderen Charme und Reiz von Halloween aus.
Herleitung aus keltischen oder vorchristlichen Traditionen [Bearbeiten]
Der Religionsethnologe Sir James Frazer beschrieb in seinem Standardwerk The Golden Bough (in der Ausgabe von 1922) Halloween als „altes heidnisches Totenfest mit einer dünnen christlichen Hülle“, neben dem Frühjahrsfest Beltane am 1. Mai (Walpurgisnacht) habe es sich um das zweite wichtige Fest der Kelten gehandelt. Nachgewiesen sei es seit dem 8. Jahrhundert, als christliche Synoden versuchten, solche „heidnischen Riten“ abzuschaffen.
Die Encyclopedia Britannica leitet das Fest aus alten keltischen Bräuchen her. Gefeiert wurde an Halloween demnach das Sommerende, der Einzug des Viehs in die Ställe. In dieser Zeit, so glaubte man, seien auch „die Seelen der Toten zu ihren Heimen zurückgekehrt“. Begangen wurde das Fest laut der Encyclopedia Britannica mit Freudenfeuern auf Hügeln (eng. "bonefires", wörtlich etwa Knochenfeuer; ursprünglich mit Bezugnahme auf das Verbrennen von Knochen des Schlachtviehs) und manchmal Verkleidungen, die der Vertreibung böser Geister dienten. Auch Wahrsagerei sei zu diesem Datum üblich gewesen.[3]
Das 1927 bis 1942 erschienene Handwörterbuch des deutschen Aberglaubens schreibt über den November: Die Kelten, welche das Jahr vom November an rechneten, feierten zu Beginn dieses Monats ein großes Totenfest, für das die Kirche die Feste Allerheiligen und Allerseelen setzte, und über Allerheiligen: Auf keltischem Gebiete war das Anzünden großer Feuer üblich. [...] Man kann am A.tage erfahren, was für ein Winter werden und wie sich die Zukunft – namentlich in Liebesangelegenheiten – gestalten wird. [...] Die an A. (wie die am Christtag und in den Zwölften) Geborenen können Geister sehen.
Meyers Konversations-Lexikon schreibt zur angeblichen keltischen Herkunft des Festes: „Legendenhaft und historisch nicht exakt zu beweisen ist eine direkte Verbindungslinie zu dem keltisch-angelsächsischen Fest des Totengottes ‚Samhain‘. Aus der Verbindung mit diesem Totengott sollen sich die Gebräuche zu Halloween ableiten, vor allem der Bezug auf das Totenreich und Geister.[4]“
Der älteste, wenn auch unsichere Hinweis auf das Samhain-Fest entstammt dem Kalender von Coligny aus dem 1. Jahrhundert n. Chr. Dabei wird mit Samhain auf ein Fest des Sommerendes hingewiesen (keltisch samos, gälisch samhuinn für „Sommer“), oder auf das irogälische Wort für Versammlung, samain.[5] Ein angeblicher Totengott Samhain ist historisch dabei nicht nachweisbar. Erst in deutlich späteren, mittelalterlichen Schriften über die Gebräuche der Kelten wird auf einen Bezug zum Totenreich hingewiesen. Diese sind bereits intensiv christlich beeinflusst.
Halloween wurde ursprünglich nur in katholisch gebliebenen Gebieten der britischen Inseln gefeiert, vor allem in Irland, während die anglikanische Kirche am Tag vor Allerheiligen die Reformation feierte. Von dort kam es mit den zahlreichen irischen Auswanderern im 19. Jahrhundert in die Vereinigten Staaten und gehörte zum Brauchtum dieser Volksgruppe. Aufgrund seiner Attraktivität wurde es bald von den anderen übernommen und entwickelte sich zu einem wichtigen Volksfest in den Vereinigten Staaten und Kanada.
Der Brauch, Kürbisse zum Halloween-Fest aufzustellen, stammt aus Irland. Dort lebte einer Sage nach der Bösewicht Jack Oldfield. Dieser fing durch eine List den Teufel ein und wollte ihn nur freilassen, wenn er Jack O fortan nicht mehr in die Quere kommen würde. Nach Jacks Tod kam er aufgrund seiner Taten nicht in den Himmel, aber auch in die Hölle durfte Jack natürlich nicht, da er ja den Teufel betrogen hatte. Doch der Teufel erbarmte sich und schenkte ihm eine Rübe und eine glühende Kohle, damit Jack durch das Dunkel wandern könne. Der Ursprung des beleuchteten Kürbisses war demnach eigentlich eine beleuchtete Rübe, doch da in den USA Kürbisse in großen Mengen zur Verfügung standen, höhlte man stattdessen einen Kürbis aus. Dieser Kürbis war seither als Jack O’Lantern bekannt. Um böse Geister abzuschrecken, schnitt man Fratzen in Kürbisse, die vor dem Haus den Hof beleuchteten.
US-amerikanische Halloweenbräuche verbreiteten sich von Frankreich ausgehend im Verlauf der 1990er Jahre nach Europa, wo sie einen fröhlichen und weniger schaurigen Charakter als in Nordamerika haben. Während in den Vereinigten Staaten öffentliche Klassenzimmer mit Hexenmotiven oder Rathausvorplätze mit Jack O’Lanterns geschmückt werden, ist Halloween-Schmuck in Europa auf einzelne Geschäftslokale oder Privaträume beschränkt. Speziell der Ausfall des Karnevals wegen des Golfkriegs 1991 förderte das Ausweichen auf den anschließenden Herbsttermin.[12][13] Heute erfreuen sich die abgewandelten Bräuche zunehmender Beliebtheit auch im deutschsprachigen Raum - besonders das Wochenende vor dem 31. Oktober, falls dieser auf einen Werktag fällt, wird von einer wachsenden Anzahl genutzt, um Kürbisse zu schnitzen.[14] Das Umherziehen von Tür zu Tür, das klassische "Trick or Treat", wird aber fast ausschließlich am Abend des 31. Oktober selbst praktiziert.

As I was running after my kids during these fireworks, I could not keep changing settings so I went for what would work "best" and hoped something would turn out!
Happy Christmas to all of you!
