Hello and welcome to another episode of No Such Thing as a Fish,
a weekly podcast coming to you from the QI offices in Covert Garden.
My name is Dan Shriver, I'm sitting here with James Harkin, Andy Murray, and Anna Chazinski,
and once again, we have gathered around the microphone with our four favorite and spooky facts from the last seven days.
For this, our Halloween special, and in no particular order, here we go.
Okay, fact number one, Andy.
My fact is that until the year 635 AD, Halloween was on the 12th of May.
Why was it on the 12th of May and why did we change it?
Well, it's only really on the 12th of May because Halloween is the day before All Saints Day.
Yeah, I was under the impression that that was the first of November.
Yes, well, basically Halloween is part of the All Hallow Tide Festival.
That's three days, which is All Hallows Eve, which we call Halloween,
All Hallows Day or All Saints Day and All Souls Day.
It was introduced in 609 AD, but it was on the 13th of May and everyone would travel to Rome and do pilgrimages there.
But in 835, Gregory IV, who was then the Pope,
said that it should become the first of November, and we're not really sure why.
