HAPPY HALLOWEEN






Today is Halloween or also known as "All Hallows Eve". Originated from a Celtic pagan festival, this later was known as Halloween. It was known as "All Hallows Eve" as the very next day was known as "All Hallows Day" or " All Saint's Day".




Now, there are legends and stories that abound on this day of how the souls of the dead were left to walk on the earth searching for a nice warm human to reside in. To further confuse these so called soulless ghouls, the living will dress up like the dead themselves in order to confuse 'them'. Over time, this practice of dressing up lived on and like any celebrations, this has become commercialized!




So, to all out there, Happy Halloween and watch out for black cats, don't allow them to cross your path!
