Posted on Tue, 22 Oct 2024

These things have varied over the many years! and now much depends on the parents and teachers. I suppose schools and kids like an event, and an event depicting 'frightening' things is something a bit different and can invovle making costumes and...

Thanks for your comment,

I think there were at one time pagan sacrifices and appeals to whatever 'gods' might be listening as the winter darkness was drawing in. There are also links to some events of wanting to remember those who had died...
