A number of people in US – and around the world, I would suppose – find themselves absolutely enamored with Halloween. Partly it has to do with the season – an Autumnal shift from the heat of summer to cooler days and colder nights, foilage turning shades of brown and umber, and the promise of approaching holidays. Family, friends, and so much more.
For many, though, it’s spooky season. A great time to take a date to see a scary movie, go with friends to haunted attractions, or find a terrifying tale to read at night. It’s been a particular interest of mine for as long as I can remember. In so many ways, this season represents some of the most interesting thoughts we have life, death, and rebirth.
A reflection of humanity in how the harvest played out, and something we celebrate even today.
