万圣节源自古代凯尔特民族的新年节庆,此时也是祭祀亡魂的时刻,在避免恶灵干扰的同时,也以食物祭拜祖灵及善灵以祈平安渡过严冬。
万圣节前夜起源于与邪恶幽灵相关的庆祝活动,所以骑着扫帚的女巫witch、幽灵ghost、小妖精和骷髅都是万圣节的标志物。蝙蝠、猫头鹰和其他夜间活动的动物也是万圣节的普遍标志。起初,这些动物让人觉得非常可怕,因为人们认为这些动物能和死者的幽灵进行交流。
万圣节的主要活动是“不给糖就捣乱”。(Play a game called ‘trick or treat’),小孩装扮并带面具dress up and wear masks扮各种恐怖scary样子,逐门逐户按响邻居的门铃,大叫:"Trick or Treat!"(意即不招待就捣乱),主人家(可能同样穿着恐怖服装)便会拿出一些糖果、巧克力或是小礼物。部分家庭将家里布置成闹鬼的屋子a haunted house甚至使用声音特效和制烟机器营造恐怖气氛。在苏格兰,小孩要糖果
时会说:“The sky is blue, the
grass is green, may we have our
Halloween.”(天是蓝色,草
是绿色,齐来庆祝万圣节前夜),
然后以唱歌跳舞等表演来博得糖果。
