The Origin of Halloween (Gutting History)
Hello, fellow terrorists
Welcome to Unraveling History with Pascu and Rodri
Today we are here to talk about the origin of Halloween
Long time ago
The Celts celebrated a unique festival
They called her Samhain
And the year ends
It was thought
That the dead were walking everywhere
That your magic
During these dates it did not stop growing
The dead who were bad
They were expelled with millstones and turnips
And the children collected
All the presents that the houses offered
They are taken to the druids to be eliminated
But first they have to do
A few human, animal and various vegetable sacrifices
Laralai-lala
When the Romans discover it they think that both
Sacrifice is barbaric and they try to ban it
The party is gradually fading away until the Pope
Gregory IV changes the name of All Saints' Day
But in the 19th century, Irish immigrants took it with them
To America, and they popularize it again
With stories like that of Jack O'lantern
Stingy Jack was a rascal
Ruin, cunning and a drinker
So much that I deceive even the devil
This one day appeared
But Jack caught him
Using a cross from his pocket
I want you to give me 10 more years
When he gets paid again, he deceives him again
With crosses he locks him in an apple tree
How did you win again?
Ask for what you want
You will never be able to touch my soul again Larai-larai
When the drunk dies and is not accepted in heaven
He runs to hell but Satan remembers
That your soul is only yours and that I can't have it
And if you want rest, go find it on your own
He threw some embers at him
With a turnip he made
A lantern that lights your way
He wanders endlessly
Nobody can touch him
He is the wandering Jack O'lantern
And since there was a surplus of pumpkins in the United States
They decided to use them as lanterns instead of turnips
To scare away the Devil on Halloween
If you celebrate Halloween
Do it carefully
Don't go sacrificing people
And if you want to scare away
Quick to the Devil
Put a Jack O'Lantern on your door
Larai-larai
