Hundreds of youngsters and the young at heart roamed Pacific Avenue filling their bags with candy and taking in the spectacle of the color and pageantry of the elaborately costumed attendees. Downtown Santa Cruz also hosted the annual impromptu nighttime party more geared for an older crowd, but without the candy giveaways. Carving pumpkins, trick-or-treating, and wearing scary costumes are some of the time-honored traditions of Halloween which has its roots in the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, a pagan religious celebration to welcome the harvest at the end of summer, when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts. In the eighth century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1 as a time to honor saints. Soon after, All Saints Day came to incorporate some of the traditions of Samhain. The evening before All Saints Day was known as All Hallows Eve, and later, Halloween. There is much debate around the origins of trick-or-treating. The Library of Congress cites three theories. \"The first theory suggests that during Samhain, Celtic people would leave food out to appease the spirits traveling the Earth at night. The second theory speculates that the candy boon stems from the Scottish practice of guising, which is a secular version of “souling.” During the Middle Ages, generally children and poor adults would collect food and money from local homes in return for prayers for the dead on All Souls’ Day. A third theory argues that modern American trick-or-treating stems from “belsnickeling,” a German-American Christmas tradition where children would dress in costume and then call on their neighbors to see if the adults could guess the identities of the disguised. In one version of the practice, the children were rewarded with food or other treats if no one could identify them.\" Whatever the origin, the tradition is quite obviously alive and well in Santa Cruz County.
