Darkness and Cold at the Time of Halloween: Thought by Celtics to Signify Death, Henceforth Costumes and Fires
The holiday of Halloween has roots that trace as far back as the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-in). The purpose of the festival was to mark the end of summer and the harvests of the year and the beginning of the shortened days that were much colder and darker as they came with winter. Winter because it was often dark and extremely cold was thought to somehow be associated with human death. The Celts believed that the night before November 1st (the day that was the beginning of their new year) the veil between the human world of the living and the spirit world of the dead was very thin, even blurred. The Celts celebrated the festival of Samhain on October 31st. The Celts believed that ghosts would return to earth and communicate with the living. Some ghosts would cause mischief including damaging crops and pull pranks on the living which in turn would cause other kinds of trouble. The Celts also felt that the Druids and seers would be in a better position to talk to the spirits and make more accurate predictions for the upcoming year. Because the Celts were so connected to their natural world for any level of survival, the predictions provided to the community by the Druids were a big source of comfort to help them through the cold, darkness of winter. Haunted House Ideas include any ideas that will scare or spook your guests! Try a theme of a haunted hospital for your haunted selection. You can have a patient (doll of some sort- or you can make your own) that is cut open for surgery. You can make it an exhibit where people can touch his intestines (spaghetti), eyeballs (meatballs or eyeball gum covered in Vaseline), his bones (done bone) and more. Play some scary music and set it up as an operating room and you have yourself a great haunted house exhibit!
