關於萬聖節由來的，傳説最多的版本認為，那是源於基督誕生前的古西歐國家，主要包括愛爾蘭、蘇格蘭和威爾士。這幾處的古西歐人叫德魯伊特人。德魯伊特的新年在十一月一日，新年前夜，德魯伊特人讓年輕人集隊，戴着各種怪異面具，拎着刻好的蘿蔔燈(南瓜燈系後期習俗，古西歐最早沒有南瓜)，他們遊走於村落間。這在當時實則為一種秋收的慶典;也有説是“鬼節”，傳説當年死去的人，靈魂會在萬聖節的前夜造訪人世，據説人們應該讓造訪的'鬼魂看到圓滿的收成並對鬼魂呈現出豐盛的款待。所有篝火及燈火，一來為了嚇走鬼魂，同時也為鬼魂照亮路線，引導其迴歸。
About the origin of Halloween, the largest version of the legend, which is originated from the ancient Western European countries before the birth of Christ, including Ireland, Scotland and Welsh. These expressions of ancient Western Europeans called Druids. Druitt in the November 1st, new year's Eve, so that young people set Druids team, wearing all kinds of strange mask, carrying a carved turnip lamp (the Jack-O-Lantern later the Department of customs, the ancient Western Europe pumpkin is not the first), they walk in the villages. This was actually a kind of harvest celebration; also said to be "Halloween", the legend who died that year, the soul will be the eve of Halloween, visit the world, said that people should be allowed to visit the ghost to see the ghost of a successful harvest and show great hospitality. All the bonfire and lights, the one to frighten away the ghost, but also for the ghost light line, to guide their return.
在中世紀的中歐，曾有過基督教摧毀異教徒的歷史。可是新年夜前的祭祀慶典從未真正消除，不過以巫術的形式出現。這也就是為什麼我們現在的萬聖節裏，還留有巫婆的掃帚、黑貓、咒語等痕跡。
In medieval Europe, there had been destroyed by the pagan history of christianity. But before the new year's Eve celebrations never really eliminate worship, but in the form of witchcraft. This is why we are now Halloween, also left the witch's broom, black cat, spells.
