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. Many thanks to Joe from the 80
Days - An Exploration Podcast for lending his voice to today's
intro quote. Find his fantastic show on Facebook, Twitter, and
80dayspodcast.com     Today's show primarily relies on
the following works: Rogers, Nicholas, Halloween: From Pagan Ritual
to Party Night, 2002 Santino, Jack (ed.) Halloween and Other
Festivals of Death and Life, 1994   For a full bibliography,
