Halloween is such a great time. So imaginative and a day with traditions dating back thousands of years.
Many folks know about Samhain, a day when the veil between the living and the dead was its thinnest, but most assume that was long ago or ‘ancient’ times. But that tradition continues today. For instance, the fascination with vampires is stronger than it’s been in American history, and what about the influence of The Walking Dead? My four year old granddaughter insisted on being a zombie. And not a ‘cute’ zombie, but a terrifying one. In other words, the Samhain tradition continues as it has since people built bonfires on hills to appease the dead. So have a safe night but make it fun.
