The Tangled History of Halloween

Guest: Lisa Morton, Screenwriter, Author, Halloween Expert Halloween is weird, isn’t it? It’s part harvest festival, with apple cider and pumpkin patches. And it’s part rowdy celebration, with trick-or-treaters running amok and adults dressing in costume. And it’s also part supernatural spookfest, with ghost stories and haunted houses. The strange nature of Halloween likely dates back to a peculiar Celtic holiday called Samhain. Halloween historian Lisa Morton has written about it extensively and joins me now.

Halloween is coming up, and there’s signs of it everywhere. Carved pumpkins with spooky faces sit on peoples’ doorsteps, cobwebs hang from every corner, there’s seasonal candy for sale, and you’ll find aisles of cheap costumes wherever you look. It’s a fun time of year with a lot of traditions. But where do these traditions come from? Why do we carve Jack-o’-lanterns out of pumpkins? What even is candy corn? Here to answer these questions and more is Student Producer Kristen Evans.

Maybe he can blame it all on his grandfather who always had a bag of lemon drops in the car, which is a tradition Sam still carries on today. Featuring work from Bil Lepp and Bill Harley.
