"Halloween," actually has its origins in the Catholic Church. It comes from a contracted corruption of All Hallows Eve. November 1, "All Hollows Day" (or "All Saints Day"), is a Catholic day of observance in honour of saints. The custom of Halloween was brought to America in the 1840's by Irish immigrants fleeing their country's potato famine.

At that time, the favourite pranks in New England included tipping over outhouses and unhinging fence gates. The Celts believed that on this day the disembodied spirits of all those who had died throughout the preceding year would come back in search of living bodies to possess for the next year. It was believed to be their only hope for the afterlife. The Celts believed all laws of space and time were suspended during this time, allowing the spirit world to intermingle with the living

Note the similarity to
 Elvis' jumpsuits  TCB symbol

As a child Elvis comic book hero was Captain Marvel can we assume that Elvis would have dressed up as his boyhood hero for HalloweenElvis certainly did his best to look like his hero as a teenager (as seen in picture below) 

Imagine a young Elvis Presley all dressed up in Superhero costumes going door to door for trick or treats! There are so many great kids costumes to choose from for your child, even little Elvis costumes. Adults can have fun impersonating Elvis for Halloween too, or pick out some funny costumes sure to make your friends laugh out loud.

Halloween Costume

(Click on image to download Pumpkin Carving Patterns) As the still-living did not want to be possessed on the night of October 31, villagers would extinguish the fires in their homes, to make them cold and undesirable. They would then dress up in all manner of ghoulish costumes and noisily paraded around the neighborhood, being as destructive as possible in order to frighten away spirits looking for bodies to possess. Since Elvis untimely death in 1977 the most favourite choice of Halloween costumes for both children and adults has been… all things Elvis… the most popular being the Vegas era jumpsuits.
