- 1. The old people would not let you throw out water on Hallow Eve night. You might throw it on the holy Souls, who walk around their homes that night.
2. People leave wine on the window for the fairies that night - to keep them in good humour.
3. Colcannon is left for the souls to eat, on that night.- Collector
