Halloween. November 1 is All Saints Day (Catholic Holiday). Saint comes from Latin. The Germanic version is Holy One. So Nov 1 could be All Holy Ones Day. The evening before All Holy One’s Day is Holy Evening or Holy Eve or Hallowed Eve or Halloweve or Halloween. Just like Christmas Eve is the evening before Christmas.
I think we are all familiar with how commercialized Holy Evening has become. Candy and Slutty Nuns anyone? LOL
