Most commonly associated with Halloween tradition is currently borrowed or adapted from two different festivals: Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced SAH-win or SOW-in), which means "summer's end" And Catholic Hallowmas.The practice of wearing costumes or masks for this kind of late autumn celebrations may have come from New Year Celtic Samhain tradition.
During Samhain, youth disguised evil spirits by dressing in white costumes with blackened faces or masks. He believes that during the transition from one year to the next, natural living and the dead will overlap, allowing the dead and evil spirits roamed the earth. By dressing up as a spirit, hopefully demons real will leave you alone, rather than rip the contents of your stomach or bother you.
In the 8th century, the Catholic Church strives to provide activities that will hopefully eradicate long tradition of Samhain, so they moved and modified Catholic tradition couple hundred years from May 13 to November 1.
The new version of the celebration included "All Hallows-Even", "All Saints' Day", and "All Day Soul", collectively called "Hallowmas". Many traditions of Samhain was adapted into a Catholic celebration and sometime between the 11th and the 15th century, the Church now adapting Celtic traditions dress costumes as saints, angels, or demons.
As for trick or treating, or "guising", tradition, beginning in the Middle Ages, children and sometimes poor adults would dress up in costumes and go around door to door during Hallowmas begging for food or money in exchange for a song and prayer, often said that on behalf of the dead. This is called "souling" and people went-a-begging is called "soulers".
Souling eventually led guising in England began in the 19th century. This is pretty much the same thing, except instead of offering prayers, the children would tell jokes, sing songs or perform any other way in exchange for a treat.
Hallowmas generally shunned by Protestants in America until the late 20th century or early 19th when allegedly taken by Scottish and Irish immigrants, with reference to the first documented in North America around 1,911. In a few decades in North America, guising gave way to "trick or treat". In this new practice, children are no longer performed to treat, but instead undermined and exploited for their food items.
Reference earliest known for the phrase "trick or treat" is printed in the November 4, 1927 edition of Blackie, Alberta Canada Herald, in which he describes how when there is no "looting eaten" given to trick or treaters, whose torturers young people will spread the available goods outside communities around the city.The term, "trick or treat", and practice, slowly spread throughout North America with a brief paus during World War II because of quota sugar. Once these restrictions are lifted, the popularity of Halloween which saw a huge spike and in the decade trick or treating is the practice everywhere close throughout North America as it is today, although somewhat toned down the "trick" part is no longer normally be a genuine threat. So, Happy Helloween guys!!
