All Saints' Day
All Saints' Day is a Christian holy day observed by Western Christians on November 1 and by Eastern Christians on the first Sunday of Pentecost (see Pentecost). It honors all Christian saints, especially those who do not have days named for them. Halloween takes its name from All Saints' Day because October 31 was called All Hallow's Eve, "eve of all the holy ones' day."
