Halloween surely has changed over the years. It is the second top grossing holiday next to Christmas in the U.S now. It was estimated that this year over $9 billion would be spent on this festivity. Growing up in a religious household I was not even allowed to dress up, so no fun stories for me.
Did you know Halloween originated from the Celtic festival called "Samhain"? I wrote a pretty detailed article a couple of days ago if you're interested in learning more. You can check it out here. Upvoted, thank you for the humor!
