  2. I think it has changed by the names, people who do it, and different traditions.The purpose was to send away spirits of the dead. Trick or treating started when troublemakers went around trashing people's houses if they don't give you candy.

  4. 1st- I think that Halloween changed by making it a all time thing every year once in awhile.
    2nd-The purpose of Halloween was to scare off the ghosts that walked the Earth.
    3rd-Trick or Treating began because kids 2000 years ago would keep on ruining houses for candy.
    4th-People mostly give out candy now probably because they don't want their house to get vandalized.

  10. It has changed very much back in the old days they would take out people's fences and not get in trouble now a days it is called vandalism. It started a long time ago and it was much different then today.It started in 1947. Long time ago it was a lot different they could get in trouble and get away with it now you can go to jail.

  12. I think halloween changed a lot over time first it was celebrating the last day of harvesting then bonfires and scaring the afterlife and etc up to where they give candy and put costumes.
    I think the purpose they are celebrating is since it was the last day for harvesting and they can take a brake.
    I think trick or treating begun since kids were pranking people and they distracted them by giving candy.
    I think it changed a lot from people finishing a harvest,doing rituals,pranking,to giving candy

  13. After learning about Halloween's past, how do you think it has changed over time? Halloween has changed from scaring the ghost away to vandalising houses to kids trick or treating. Personally i think its the best now.

    What was the purpose of Halloween when it began 2000 years ago? From what iv'e learned Halloween was a day where ghost walked the earth so the purpose of the day was to scare away the lost souls.

    When or why did Trick or Treating begin? Trick or Treating began late 1940's and the purpose was kind of a threat beetween give me a candy or i will vandalise your house.

    How do you think Halloween is celebrated now, very different from the past? Now halloween is about getting candy and hanging out but in the past it was very spiritial and godly.
