Celebrate Halloween with a little history.
According to an 1886 Harper’s Bazaar article giving “Suggestions for a Halloween Party,” how the holiday “originated, or what connection it had with pagan rites or Druidical ceremonies” was not so important to a young woman as “the hope of finding a ring and penny in her plate of Halloween pudding.
Halloween as we know it became more recognizable over the next few decades. Decorations at a party in 1902 covered by The Daily Times in Davenport, IA, included “jack o’lanterns, stuffed bats, owls, and cats,” while guests “came masked and attired in the costumes of witches [and] pumpkins.” Other popular costumes for women included Martha Washington and a clown-like character called the Yama Yama Girl from the 1908 Broadway show The Three Twins.
