Mask O(∩_∩)O~
In the November 1, New Year's Eve, Druid young people went out team by team, wearing all kinds of weird masks and carrying carved turnip lights (the pumpkin light existed later, there is no pumpkin light at that time ), they wandered between the villages .
在西方国家，每年的10月31日，有个“Halloween”，辞典 解释为“The eve of All Saints’Day”，中文译作： “万圣节之夜”。万圣节是西方国家的传统节日。这一夜 是一年中最“闹鬼”的一夜，所以也叫“鬼节”。
As to the origin of Halloween, there are several different legends. But two of them are widely convinced.
这在当时实则为一种秋 收的庆典；也有说是 “鬼节”，传说当年死 去的人，灵魂会在万圣 节的前夜造访人世，据 说人们应该让造访的鬼 魂看到圆满的收成并对 鬼魂呈现出丰盛的款待。 所有篝火及灯火，一来 为了吓走鬼魂，同时也 为鬼魂照亮路线，引导 其回归。
In medieval Europe, there had been the history of Christianity to destroy dissenters. However, before the New Year's Eve celebration worship never really removed, but in the form of witchcraft. This is why we are now celebrating Halloween, but witch's brooms, black cats, spells and other traces also left.
The first one:
The largest version of the legend came from the ancient Western European countries, mainly including Ireland, Scotland and Wales before the birth of Christ . There were a few ancient people of Western Europeans called the Druids.

That was actually a kind of harvest celebration; also it was said to be "Halloween“. According to legend ,the soul of those who died that year will return on that night. It said that people should let the ghost to see a big harvest and offer abundant sacrifices to them . All bonfire and lights, on one hand were used to scare away the ghost, on the other hand those could guide the road for the ghosts to return.
两千多年前，欧洲的天主教会把11月1日定为 “天下圣徒之日” (ALL HALLOWS DAY) 。 “HALLOW” 即圣徒之意。传说自公元前五百年， 居住在爱尔兰、苏格兰等地的凯尔特人 (CELTS)把 这节日往前移了一天，即10月31日。他们认为该 日是夏天正式结束的日子，也就是新年伊始，严酷 的冬季开始的一天。那时人们相信，故人的亡魂会 在这一天回到故居地在活人身上找寻生灵，借此再 生，而且这是人在死后能获得再生的唯一希望。而 活着的人则惧怕死魂来夺生，于是人们就在这一天 熄掉炉火、烛光，让死魂无法找寻活人，又把自己 打扮成妖魔鬼怪把死人之魂灵吓走。之后，他们又 会把火种烛光重新燃起，开始新的一年的生活。传 说那时凯尔特人部落还有在10月31日把活人杀死 用以祭奠死人的习俗。
在中世纪的中欧，曾有 过基督教摧毁异教徒的 历史。可是新年夜前的 祭祀庆典从未真正消除， 不过以巫术的形式出现。 这也就是为什么我们现 在的万圣节里，还留有 巫婆的扫帚、黑猫、咒 语等痕迹。

The second legend:
关于万圣节由来的 传说另一种版本认 为，那是源于基督 诞生前的古西欧国 家，主要包括爱尔 兰、苏格兰和威尔 士。这几处的古西 欧人叫德鲁伊特人。
德鲁伊特的新年在11月1日，新年前夜，德鲁伊特人 让年轻人集队，戴着各种怪异面具，拎着刻好的萝卜 灯（南瓜灯系后期习俗，古西欧最早没有南瓜），他 们游走于村落间。
