All Saints Day is also known as All Hallows Day. This day is to honour all those saints who do not have a special feast day of their own, and to remember departed relatives. It stems from the idea that there is a spiritual bond between those who have departed and those still alive.

#AllSaintsDay, or #AllHallowsDay, is commonly described as a #Christian coöption of Samhain, but that's also not the case. When All Hallows' Day was introduced, it was celebrated on a range of days, including 1 November. In #Ireland and #Scotland, however, it was originally celebrated on 23 April. So if it was intended to replace a #pagan festival, that festival was #Bealtaine, not Samhain.
