Today's Halloween customs are believed to have been influenced by folk customs and beliefs from the Celtic-speaking countries are thought to have pagan roots.Historian Nicholas Rogers, exploring the origins of Halloween, notes that while "some folklorists have detected its origins in the Roman feast of Pomona, the goddess of fruits and seeds, or in the festival of the dead called Parentalia.). Samhain and Calan Gaeaf are mentioned in some of the earliest Irish and Welsh literature. The names have been used by historians to refer to Celtic Halloween customs up until the 19th century, and are still the Gaelic and Welsh names for Halloween.
Google's Frightgeist tool is harnessing the power of search data to inform users of the likelihood they'll encounter someone else wearing the same Halloween costume at a party. For those who already have a costume in mind, a quick search will show its rank nationally and let you know the likelihood of running into another person dressed like you at a party.
