Halloween: Feast of the Dying Sun

51MIN

This extraordinary film delves into ancient Celtic origins and the dark fun of Halloween with an eerie journey back in time. The Irish called this night the Vigil of Saman. Christians described it as a time for heretical practices, from magic charms and divinations to reading the future with Witches. It was a night filled with strange rites. Learn how the superstitions of All Hallows Eve persist to this day.
