Over 2,000 years ago, on this island, the ancient Celts marked the end of harvest and the beginning of the dark half of the year with a festival called Samhain. They lit great fires on the hills, they left food at the door for the spirits, they wore disguises to confuse the dead who walked freely among them on the one night the veil between two worlds grew thinnest.​ Every year, October in Ireland feels different to anywhere else. Something stirs, and the Home of Halloween comes alive 🎃​ #HomeOfHalloween​ ​
