Halloween dates back to the Celtic festival of Samhain agriculture. As crops died at the end of the harvest season, farmers believed there was a day when the spirits could rise from their graves. At Samhain, people dressed in disguise to deceive and frighten the spirits, and hope that their land could survive the winter.


In the eighth century, Christians tried to convert the pagan festival. Pope Gregory III declared November 1 to the feast of All Saints. The night before became known as All Hollow's Eve.


Modern Halloween traditions and folklore for the first time to America in the 19th century with the arrival of Irish immigrants. Carve turnips and turn them into lamps was an Irish custom of honoring the souls trapped in purgatory. Since pumpkins were easier to carve turnips, this ritual adapted to jack-o-lanterns as Eve celebrations all voids are formed in the United States.


The big business of Halloween grew during the 20th century. Mass-produced costumes, candy and decorations meant big profits.


According to the National Retail Federation, the five suits in 2011 for adults is a witch, pirate, vampire, zombie and character of Batman. The top five for children are princess, witch, Spiderman, Pirates, and squash. The most popular pet costumes are pumpkin, devil and the hot dog.
