The practice of carving faces into vegetables became associated with Halloween in Ireland and Scotland around the 1800s.

In England and Ireland during All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day celebrations, poor people would visit the houses of wealthier families and receive pastries called soul cakes in exchange for a promise to pray for the souls of the homeowners’ dead relatives. (The Catholic Church still recognizes All Saints’ Day and All Souls' Day today, and some Wiccans and Celtic Reconstructionists commemorate Samhain.) Over many centuries, the three holidays-All Saints’ Day, All Souls' Day and Samhain-essentially merged into one: Halloween. The All Saints’ Day celebration was also called All-hallows or All-hallowmas (from Middle English Alholowmesse meaning All Saints’ Day) and the night before it, the traditional night of Samhain in the Celtic religion, began to be called All-Hallows Eve and, eventually, Halloween. It’s widely believed today that the church was attempting to replace the Celtic festival of the dead with a related, church-sanctioned holiday. In the 7th century, the Catholic Church established November 1 as All Saints' Day, a day commemorating all the saints of the church. By the 9th century, the influence of Christianity had spread into Celtic lands, where it gradually blended with and supplanted older Celtic rites. In 1000 A.D., the church made November 2 All Souls’ Day, a day to honor the dead. + #64 MSCHF Fellowship + #65 Tontine + #66 Onlybags + #67 Blur ₩ + #68 C&D Grand Prix + #69 Heart 2 Electric Boogaloo + #70 MSCHF Standardized Test + #71 BLUR د.إ + #72 Childrens Crusade + #73 Vinyl Blade + #74 MSCHF Mag Volume 6 + #75 Boosted Pack v4 - Spring Break + #76 MSCHF & Tiffany & Co.Read more about Samhain.
