The History of Halloween dates back 2000 years to the Celts who celebrated their new year on November 1st - a date that would mark the end of summer and the beginning of the dark and cold winter. On the night before - which was later called All Hallows eve and today Halloween - it was believed that the space between the living and dead was blurred. Today Halloween is a beloved holiday and a time for feasts and fun. If you're planning on having guests let us give you some great ideas for creating a lovely fall feast!
