When is the gap in celebrating Samhain in Ireland?

By 'created in Scotland ' do you mean the name being coined? Samhain itself is present in medieval Irish literature and possibly before then.

It's literally the name of the month in Irish and people in Ireland have been lighting bonfires, dressing up and playing games with apples throughout history and not just by planters.

I know it's Wikipedia but it's well referenced: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samhain

Confidentiality incorrect. In the 7th century that Catholic holiday was in May and was only moved to coincide with Samhain 200 years later. Or Samhain just happened to be celebrated on the exact day and have many of the same traditions?

The actual month of November in Irish is called "mí na Samhna" or the month of Samhain. It is certainly ancient and would be very difficult to separate Halloween from Samhain just because the name Halloween in English comes from a holiday the Catholic church moved to have the same date
