A fascinating journey tracing the origins of one of our most enduring holidays, from the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain through its transformation under Roman and Christian influences.

As one of the earliest books devoted entirely to Halloween, this work reveals the origins of many cherished customs. From bonfires illuminating the Autumnal nights to mischievous costumes and fortune-telling games, Ruth Edna Kelley sheds light on the cultural and historical significance of beloved traditions.

First published in 1919, The Book of Halloween remains an essential read for all those curious about the spirited past of October's most magical night.
