Halloween was a human holiday celebrated on the 31st day of October. The holiday developed from several older religious festivals, and emphasized ideas and characters that were frightening to most humans.

History and specifics[]

Upon discovering a number of apparently dead Cardassian soldiers lying in a previously sealed compartment on Deep Space 9, the senior staff decided to keep the discovery a secret until a way could be found to return the Cardassians to their own people. Captain Benjamin Sisko remarked that until a diplomatically acceptable way to remove those soldiers could be found that it would be Halloween on the station. (DS9 novel: Station Rage)
