Countdown to Halloween night
October 31 is the eve of All Saints’ Day. Irish and Scottish All Hallows’ Eve customs — costumes, soul cakes, carved turnips — crossed the Atlantic. Pumpkins replaced turnips in North America.
It is not a US federal holiday. Schools still parade, and late October is peak costume and candy week. Trick-or-treating is a neighborhood custom, not a statute.
