    Q = Where did the Halloween tradition originate?
    Ireland :j
    North Pole
    Tanzania

    from http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20061017083907AAyVThw

    or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween
    it is more typically linked to the Celtic festival of Samhain, whose original spelling was Samuin (pronounced sow-an or sow-in)".[1] The name is derived from Old Irish and means roughly "summer's end".

    New Question - Where did the Halloween tradition originate?

    Am going for Ireland given that its roots are Celtic

    Other options are Tanzania & North Pole, so seems most likely

    ETA - Sorry, didn't scroll up far enough to see CraSiEla had already found the answer, just saw CP's with just the link & stopped there :o. Could have saved myself some searching (self-deprecating rolling eyes!)
