The Meaning of Halloween

Despite the changes in society, the childhood celebration of Halloween continues largely unabated.   The fascination with being someone else for a night will probably never go away.  The intrigue of contemplating whether one will be a villain, or a hero draws us even as adults.  The idea of going about in the world with your identity concealed is always fascinating.

But many of us know that there are religious roots to our secular celebration.  If you're like me, you get confused differentiating "All Saints Day" and "All Souls Day" and "the Day of the Dead."
