October 30 More History on HalloweenMore History on Halloween Halloween traditions of trick-or-treating and jack-o-lanterns were brought to America in the 1840s by Irish escaping the Great Potato Famine. On Halloween, Irish peasants begged the rich for food and played practical jokes on those who refused. To avoid being tricked, the rich handed out cookies, candies, and fruit - a practice that turned into our present day trick-or-treating. "Witch" means "wise one." It comes from the Saxon word "wica." Witches were thought to be wise enough to tell the future. Since 1995, trick-or-treating in the town of Sandusky, Ohio, has been against the law for anyone older than 14. Dunking for apples arose from a practice of divining the future. It was believed that if you could hold an apple between your teeth you would have a fulfilling romance with whomever you chose. According to ancient superstitions, if you stare into a mirror at midnight on Halloween, you'll see your future spouse. The pumpkin is a great source of Vitamin A (but you have to eat it. Just putting it on your front lawn won't work). With an estimated $1.93 billion in candy sales, Halloween is the sweetest holiday of the year, beating out Easter, Valentine's Day, and Christmas. In fact, one quarter of all the candy sold each year is purchased between September 15 and November 10. The biggest pumpkin in the world tipped the scales at a whopping 1,446 pounds. This gigantic gourd was weighed in October 2004 at a pumpkin festival in Port Elgin, Ontario, Canada. |
