Halloween, which Canadians call l'Halloween, is a celebration held every year on the evening of October 31, the eve of All Saints' Day.
Halloween is a festival of Celtic origin whose etymological root is All Hallow Even (or All Hallow Eve), that is, the eve of All Saints' Day.
Modern tradition has it that children dress up in scary costumes and go ringing doorbells asking for treats with the phrase: "Trick or treat!", which means "candy or a curse!".
