'Way back "whn"somo 1,300 years before "Trick-or-Treat", October 31 was called All Hallows' Eve jo indicate the evening before All Hallows' Day or All Saints' Day, November I. In 609 A.D., Pope Boniface IV dedicated the Pantheon in' Rom to the Blessed Virgin and all th martyrs. That . day of conversion from pagan temple into a place of Christian worship j when the light of Christianity replaced the pagan fires was observed May 13 as the Peace of the Martyrs. Later, in the '; eighth century. Pope Gregory III dedicated a chapel in the Vti can basilica to all saints and proclaimed November I as th , festal day. . , . ' .)
