Hallow:
verb
honor as holy
noun
a saint or holy person

Apparently the hallow, the biome in Terraria, is based on an actual word. Moreover, it's an old word, and apparently its adjective form "hallowed" and infinitive form "to hallow" are archaic terms that really only find usage in the Lord's Prayer in the New Testament.
Additionally, did you know that the word "
hallow" is used in the term Allhallowedtide (also called Hallowtide, Allsaintstide or Hallowmas) which is a designation for a Western Christian season which encompasses All Saint's Eve (Halloween), All Saint's Day (All Hallows') and All Soul's Day.
 
Hmm, it's quite interesting that the term "Hallow" is related to the holiday we all know and love - Halloween.

Oh well, nothing will probably come of it anyway.
