Halloween and her Haters

Exploring Halloween’s Secret Christian History, Our Old Costumes, and Spooky Reads

 

It’s spooky season yet again! This year, we’re diving into the diverse European roots of Halloween, doing a fashion review of Cullen’s previous Halloween costumes, and deconstructing Hannah’s trauma with Christian haunted houses known as Hell Houses. Grab your cape, cat, and cauldron and join us for a lot of lore and even more reminiscing about Boston.
