An evening full of secrets:
The history and magic of Halloween
October 31, the eve of All Saints Day, is Halloween – it’s a night where the mysterious and mystical permeates the real world.
The origins of this festival go far back in time when in Ireland the Celtic Druids heralded in the end of summer with the festival of Samhain. It was a time when people believed that the dead walked among the living and the boundary between worlds was permeable.
Over the centuries, this ancient ritual turned into the holiday that we know today: Halloween – an evening full of spooks, masks, secrets and fun. And while in the U.S. the streets have been alive with people dressed up in costumes for years, Halloween in Germany has also turned into a festive event for the whole family.
It’s about scary and also funny costumes, about being together, telling stories, and the magic in each decorated pumpkin.
Happy Halloween!
Tip:
Bring the old Halloween custom to life and invite your guests to carve their own small pumpkins. Decorate the finished pumpkins on the dining table and let them shine in a warm light.
