would go from door to door in disguise as creatures from the
underworld to collect treats, mainly fruit, nuts and the like for the
festivities. These were used for playing traditional games like
eating an apple on a string or bobbing for apples and other gifts in
a basin of water, without using your hands. Salt might be sprinkled
on the visiting children to ward off evil spirits. Carving turnips as
ghoulish faces to hold candles became a popular part of the festival,
which has been adapted to carving pumpkins in America.
