Halloween is the evening before All Saints' Day on November 1 - All Hallows' Eve. It draws on Samhain, the Gaelic festival at the end of the harvest that marked the start of winter, when the boundary with the world of the dead was thought to be thin.

The first jack-o'-lanterns in Ireland and Scotland were carved from turnips. In North America the pumpkin took their place.
