18. Unmasking Halloween: Discover the Celtic Festival of the Dead Known As Samhain

Walk the ancient paths of the Celts; journey across the misty moors of Ireland and Scotland as Campbell reveals the traditions of her own Celtic ancestors during their festival of the dead known as Samhain. Learn how this ancient Celtic rite evolved after hundreds of years of conflict with the Catholic Church to become our own modern Halloween. From apple bobbing to trick-or-treat, jack-o-lanterns and costumes, discover that the fun of Halloween is steeped in ancient spirituality and, as a holiday, deserves to have its true light restored.
