Important Hallowe'en questions

Halloween (who can be bothered with the apostrophe) throws up many questions each time it comes round. Such as:

Was it really invented by the Irish?
Why did the church change its attitude to all saints day in the early 1970s?
What's the story behind the pumpkins?

And now my favourite...

Why don't I come home with a huge bag of sweets that the local treat or treaters can't possibly all eat (therefore leaving me with a not inconsiderable cache of goodies) more often?
