On this trail tonight we go though the ports to the Celtic otherworld and discover the practices and customs of the ancient festival of Samhain. Then go thought the history and what happened to Samhain, then I go over the Fae being of Celtic mythology that might walk in our realm, lastly we tie in the Halloween celebrations we have now to what was practiced on that Samhain night. So grab a jack-o-lanturn and costume as we go to the otherworld on this trail. and Happy Halloween.
