Trick-or-Treating Facts!
Trick-or-treating is a derived from the much older practices of guising,Ā souling, and mumming
guising was a Scottish tradition of children wearingĀ ādisguisesā to protect themselves from evil spirits, and going door-to-door to receive food or money. it dates back to at least the 16th century!
soulingĀ was a British/Irish practice of soulers (mainly children & the poor) going door-to-door and receiving soul cakesĀ (āsoulsā) in exchange for song & prayer. this practices dates from the 15th century.
mummingĀ was a similar British practice, though more commonly performed on Christmas and Easter. Amateur actors (mummers) would visit houses & pubs to perform folk plays in exchange for money. These often involved sword fights, and occasionally sword dances!Ā
Immigrants brought these practices to North America, where trick-or-treating itselfĀ developed in the 1920s. Itās gained popularity in a number of other countries since them, with different countries developing their own variations, but is still most commonplace in the U.S. and Canada.
Guising, souling, and mumming are still practiced today in certain parts of BritainĀ (and elsewhere), though not on the scale that trick-or-treating has reached. Soul cakes look like this:

if you enjoy my posts, i have a ko-fi!
and here are photos of traditional English mummers. Mummerās plays are still performed today, though most often for Christmas and Boxing Day celebrations.
yes, the costumes are made out of scraps of fabric and rags and even old newspapers! but if you donāt have time to make your own scrapheap, the modern storebought version is fine too:
