🎃✨ Did you know Halloween began in Ireland? Long before pumpkins, costumes, and trick-or-treating, the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced “sow-in”) marked the origins of what we now celebrate as Halloween.
Over 2,000 years ago, the Celts believed that during Samhain, the veil between the living and the dead was at its thinnest — a mystical time for firelight, feasts, and folklore. Today, that ancient spirit still lives on across Ireland through incredible Halloween festivals, parades, and traditions.
