65 Halloween and Samhain Festival
Manage episode 220072756 series 2360709
Happy Halloween! This week we have a real treat for you, with an episode focused on the origins of Halloween. Specifically Lorna discusses the ancient Celtic Samhain Festival which marked the end of Summer and the harvest, and marked the beginning of Winter. At the time boundaries between this world and the underworld became thin and therefore Celts would protect themselves from Demons and Fairies.
Later we learn some very interesting Halloween facts, and in particular Matt is shocked by the size of the world’s largest pumpkin. He also makes a very bold claim that he would be able to beat a world record, so listen out for that! We also promote Netflix multiple times, this is not intentional but the shows we mention are definitely worth a watch. Keep an eye out on our social media for a lot of information from this weeks episode and also some pictures from our Halloween celebrations!Twitter: @IdiotHistoryPod
