An Irish Halloween/Oíche Shamhna: Celtic Magic
Embark on a trick-or-treat adventure, carve a turnip (the original jack-o’-lantern), play age-old Irish Halloween games, and delve into the ancient autumnal tradition of Oíche Shamhna, the eve of Samhain, across which bonfires lit the land orange and the world was believed to open to the realm of spirits.
Come in costume.
