摘要
As I'm away at Sound Education, this is a reupload of an old History of Witchcraft episode on the origins and development of Halloween.
Today we cover the development of Halloween - its development from a Celtic harvest festival, which may or may not have involved the ritual slaughter of infant children, and its merger with the Christian holy days of All Saints and All Souls, emerging from the melting pot of American society as something new and old, traditional and commercial.
