Every October 31st, we grab our costumes and carve pumpkins, but the truth about Halloween is far stranger—and spookier—than you think. It's a 2,000-year saga of gods, ghosts, saints, and sweets.

Join us as we trace the incredible, spooky history of All Hallows' Eve. We travel back to the ancient Celtic world of Samhain, where bonfires were lit to ward off malevolent spirits and the dead walked the earth. We then follow the tradition as it blends with Christian solemnity, giving rise to the medieval English custom of Souling (the true origin of trick-or-treating) and the use of terrifying turnip lanterns (not pumpkins!). Finally, we examine how immigrants brought these ancient rites to America, transforming a solemn vigil into the candy-fueled, commercial holiday we celebrate today.

Uncover the forgotten rituals and surprising truths behind the world's favorite holiday!
