Book of The Season
With summer coming to an end and autumn taking over, it's time to start planning for All Saints' Day, Halloween and Samhain. Which one do you celebrate, if any?
​
My nan used to take me to the graveyard to light candles for her loved and lost ones, but I always kept an eye on the other people lurking around the graves. Where they alive or dead? With the wall between our world and the one beyond being extra thin at this time of year, how could I be sure?
​
I have written about this and much more in Mia's Bayeux Tales - Halloween, which I have chosen as Book of the Season, for obvious reasons. You can read about my theory of why traditional ghosts wear white sheets and why we dress up for Halloween.
