Description

We now know that Halloween comes from the ancient Celtic celebration Samhain. In this episode, we explore some of the monsters of Samhain including Julius Caesar, or as I like to call him, the Grinch That (almost) Stole Halloween!

I’m dying to hear your Halloween memories and questions! What do you love about the season? Need some spooky advice? Call the All Hallows Hotline: 802-532-DEAD or write to itsalwayshalloweenpodcast@gmail.com
