Customs and superstitions gathered through the ages go into the celebration of Halloween, or All Hallows Eve, on October 31st , the Christian festival of All Saints . It has its origins, however, in the autumn festivals of earlier times. The ancient Druids had a three day celebration at the beginning of November. They believed that on the last night of October spirits of the dead roamed abroad, and they lighted bonfires to drive them away. In ancient Rome , the festival of Pomona , goddess of fruits and gardens, occurred at about this time of year. It was an occasion of rejoicing associated with the harvest; and nuts and apples, as symbols of the winter store of fruit, were roasted before huge bonfires. But these agricultural and pastoral celebrations also had a sinister aspect, with ghosts and witches thought to be on the prowl. Enjoy free beer. Meet new people. Protect the planet.
