interesting facts about halloween

One of the most popular customs associated with the masquerade - Halloween, is celebrated in many countries on the evening of October 31 (the busiest in the United States, Canada, Ireland and Great Britain). The main symbol of the holiday is a hollow and backlit pumpkin with jagged teeth. Other popular themes are ghosts, demons, zombies, vampires, witches, and skulls. I searched the web a little and collected 12 interesting facts about Halloween for you. After Christmas, Halloween is both the most popular and profitable holiday. The origin of Halloween is not entirely known. It may be a Roman festival in honor of the fruit and seed deity (Pamona) or the Celtic Samhain rite, during which summer was farewell, winter was celebrated, and the day of the dead was celebrated. The name Halloween is probably abbreviated All Hallows' E'en, or earlier 'All Hallows' Eve - Eve of All Saints.
If we are already with the colors. Do you know how orange and black color as a symbol of Halloween? Orange marks the end of the autumn harvest and black represents the "death" of summer.
