halloween

                                 HALLOWEEN

Halloween , también conocido como Noche de Brujas o Noche de Difuntos, es una fiesta de origen celta que se celebra principalmente en los Estados Unidos, Canadá, Irlanda, el Reino Unido y en países no anglosajones como México y Colombia en la noche del 31 de octubre. Tiene origen en la festividad celta del Samhain y la festividad cristiana del Día de Todos los Santos. En gran parte, es una celebración secular aunque algunos consideran que posee un trasfondo religioso. Los inmigrantes irlandeses transmitieron versiones de la tradición a América del Norte durante la Gran hambruna irlandesa de 1840.
