The heritage and essence of celebrating Halloween and all its exciting aspects and activities still live on. Although it has been brought to a different dimension because of the modernization of the world, Halloween still is one of the most celebrated events all over the world, not just because of tradition, but because people understand the true essence of celebrating this grandiose occasion.

 

El Monte, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/21/2015 -- People celebrate a wide range of feasts and festivities all year round all over the globe and all of these celebrated occasions have their own distinctive themes based on the season of the year. Moreover, people from different parts of the world have their own way of celebrating each special event such as having a themed Christmas party or celebrating Halloween with really creepy costumes and Halloween masks.

Most people all over the world know the rationale and the essence behind the celebration of Christmas especially for those who are Catholics. In addition to this, Halloween is also a yearly occasion that people celebrate each year; however, do they really know the story or the essence as to how Halloween came to be?

Halloween is actually a day of remembering the dead, especially those martyrs and saints who have died in their fight for their belief and faith. This special occasion is observed every 31st day of October. People typically celebrate Halloween by doing Trick-or-Treats, pumpkin carving to attain the Jack O' Lantern design, bonfire lighting, and attending costume parties. Fun-filled activities are in store for children and adults alike where haunted attractions are visited, scary stories are being told, and creepy horror movies are in season. Halloween is the time of the year when most people play pranks on others to scare and fright them.

On the other hand, churches also have a different way of commemorating the death of the saints and religious martyrs. They perform solemn church services in honor of the dead where they light candles on the graves and sing religious hymns during vigils.

Although today's celebration of Halloween has somehow evolved to be somewhat very festive and modernized, the customs regarding the celebration of this special day for the dearly departed are based on the sacred and religious contexts. And even the donning of different costumes and Halloween masks have been done since 1585 which was originally done in Scotland but is still part of the tradition up to this time. Furthermore, Traditional Halloween costumes were based on fear-provoking supernatural creatures and beings from folkloric tales; while in this modern time, costumes are based on characters that are seen in movies, television and other forms of mass media.

The heritage and essence of celebrating Halloween and all its exciting aspects and activities still live on. Although it has been brought to a different dimension because of the modernization of the world, Halloween still is one of the most celebrated events all over the world, not just because of tradition, but because people understand the true essence of celebrating this grandiose occasion.
