All Saints Day, All Hollows Day
The early catholic church had tried to convert people by coobting their existing holidays and traditions. It was a pretty genius marketing move, like: we'll basically let you keep your holiday, just add a sprinkle of holy water and a dash of jesus to it. The celts celebrated their hollodays beginning on the night before at sunset, which is where that all hollows eve part comes in. Eventually, becomes the name halloween.
