Legend has it that since 500 B.C., the Celts, who lived in Ireland and Scotland, moved the holiday forward one day, to October 31st. They believed it was the official end of summer, the beginning of the New Year and the start of the harsh winter. It was believed that on this day the dead souls of the deceased would return to their homelands to find life in the living and regenerate themselves, and that this was the only hope for regeneration after death. The living are afraid that the dead souls will come to take over their lives, so people will extinguish the fire and candles on this day so that the dead souls can't find the living, and they will dress up as demons to scare away the souls of the dead. Afterward, they would rekindle the fires and candles to start the new year. Legend has it that Celtic tribes also killed the living on October 31st to honor the dead.
