Ireland: The Ancestral Home of Halloween Celebrations
Halloween as we know it today is a fusion of various traditions, but its deepest roots lie in the Celtic festival of Samhain. Marking the end of the harvest season and the onset of winter, Samhain was believed to be a time when the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead blurred. Over the years, these ancient rituals have evolved into the pumpkin carving, costume-wearing festivities we enjoy today.
