About Halloween
Halloween comes from the Celtic festival of Samhain, which marked the end of harvest and the start of winter, and from the Christian All Hallows' Eve, the night before All Saints' Day on November 1.
Irish and Scottish immigrants brought the customs to North America in the 19th century, where they grew into the modern festival of costumes, jack-o'-lanterns and trick-or-treating.
In 2029 it falls on a Wednesday. This countdown runs to the first moment of October 31 in the time zone you choose, so the figure matches the calendar day on your wall.
