Although many Dudeists use this day to dress up like the Dude or other Lebowski characters, Melloween harkens back to the original meaning of Halloween (originally “hallowed evening”). Descending from a Gaelic festival called Samhain, this was the time of year when one would pay homage to the dearly departed. On Melloween, Dudeists are prone to remember friends and family who have passed and raise a glass to them in honor and affection. We can also take the time to reconnect with living family and friends with whom we’ve fallen out of touch.
