The American version of Halloween originates from the Celtic celebration of Samhain (pronounced sow – in) which is a Druidic festival devised to celebrate the end of the harvest.
As with a lot of Celtic lore, faeries were thought to be extremely active at this time as they ushered in the winter.
During the celebration, the Celts wore costumes – typically consisting of animal heads and skins – and they tried to tell each other’s fortunes. They would build huge sacred bonfires where people gathered to burn crops and animals as sacrifices and offerings to their Celtic deities.
