Women used to play games on Halloween to find out what their future husband would be like.
For many women in the early 20th century, Halloween was about finding love.
Games like Snap-Apple were popular, in which participants could only use their teeth to bite into an apple suspended from a stick – and the first one to succeed would marry.
Women also used to toss apple skins over their shoulders, hoping the scraps would land on the floor in the shape of their future husband’s initials.
