Episode 8: The Thinning Veil


Listen Later

Every October, the air grows colder, the nights stretch longer, and the boundary between the living and the dead begins to fade.

 

In this Halloween special, we'll trace the haunting origins of the holiday. From the fires of ancient Samhain and the prayers of All Hallows’ Eve, to poisoned candy panics, witch trials, and the worldwide traditions that still honor the dead today.

 

It’s a story of masks and memory, fear and fire, life and death... and the one night a year when both worlds meet.

 

Because Halloween isn’t about celebrating death.

It’s about remembering it.
