Ep22_ A Halloween History

Send us a text

Join us as we discuss some of the significance of the time of the thinning of the veil, of the genesis of the halloween holiday we celebrate today, practices for appeasing the spirits, hiding from them, and asking them for their mercy in the coming winter.  In this episode we talk about the so called "myths" of candy poisoning, apple divination, and the many many ties to animistic beliefs.
