That was me! Do you know how excited I was then? I held it, jumping and shouting. That was the most unforgettable day to me. And I will not forget it, never!

高中關於萬聖節的英語作文 篇21

凱爾特人(Celtic) 相信太陽神幫助他們種植農作物。但是，每年太陽神都會被一個名叫Samhain的邪惡力量攻擊並被囚禁六個月。Samhain，還有兩個稱號，分別是"Lord of Dead(死亡領主)"以及"Prince of Darkness(暗黑王子)"，他帶着寒冷以及黑暗的冬天來到凱爾特人的土地。

凱爾特人非常害怕10月31日的夜晚，因為他們覺得這晚，有一堆邪惡靈魂潛伏在任何地方。他們在家生起火來讓那些邪惡靈魂離開他們的家(上一個沒有翻譯的段落有一句是説火焰可以把鬼魂嚇走的。)他們相信是Samhain把死人叫出來的，他們還相信Samhain會把死人變為其他東西，好像貓。凱爾特人會裝着可怕的偽裝來把那羣邪惡靈魂趕走。(這就是萬聖節的原型)

後羅馬佔領了凱爾特人的土地，把羅馬的節日和凱爾特人10月31日的Samhain祭典合在一起，就成了現在的萬聖節。

Celtic believed that the sun god helped them grow crops. But each year the sun god is attacked by an evil force called Samhain and spent six months in captivity. Samhain, and two other titles, "Lord of Dead" and "Prince of Darkness", came to Celtic land with cold and dark winters.

The celts are very afraid of the night of October 31, because they feel like there's a bunch of evil souls lurking everywhere. They set fire to their home to let evil spirits leave their homes. (the last untranslated paragraph was that the flames could frighten the ghost away.) They believed Samhain had called the dead, and they believed that Samhain would turn the dead into something else, like a cat. The celts will be disguising their evil spirits with terrible disguises. (this is the prototype for Halloween.)

Then Rome took over the Celtic lands and put the Roman holiday together with the Celtic Samhain festival on October 31, and it was now Halloween.
