Samhain, (pronounced sow'-een, or SOW-in), is the one of the major Sabbats, or festivals, celebrated by Wiccans. It is held on October 31st to November 1st of every year. This festival stems from customs long ago of an ancient pre-Christian Celtic festival which honored the dead and is commonly referred to as "Halloween" or "All Hallows Eve". Translated in Gaelic, Samhain means "summers end".
