I'm not sure but wearing costumes goes all the way back to Scotland in 1585!
Hey! My favorite holiday is halloween because i like dressing up! Sounds like fun. Do you like other halloween activities like trick-or-treating, apple bobbing, and carving pumpkins? Yeah, it's such a fun time! You can still have fun as an adult though. There's plenty of activities to do. Do you know how long people have been celebrating Halloween? I am not really sure, but i know t's believed that Halloween traditions date back to old Celtic harvest festivals Wow, so cool! I wonder what types of things people would wear as a costume back then? I also don't know that. Did you know that the event starts the observance of Allhallowtide that lasts three days ? This time is dedicated to remember the dead. Ooo spooky! I never knew people would remember the dead on Halloween. Do you know why people carve pumpkins?
An early reference to wearing costumes at Halloween comes from Scotland in 1585, but they may pre-date this.
