During Table Talk today, we talked about the history of Halloween and its relevance in today’s world. A tradition originated by the Celtic people 2,000 years ago in Ireland, it’s still a part of today’s traditions. It was interesting to hear of different people’s experiences with it growing up. Some didn’t celebrate it, while others participated in town festivals dedicated to the 31st of October. It was also cool to see how many people relate it to happy memories with family and friends, much like my own experience. Overall, I learned that for years, Halloween has been a celebration that brings people together, in their love for scary things and candy.
