HALLOW-FACT of The Day- 2 Days to HALLOW-DEGASM
In northern Ireland, it was customary for Druids to perform ritualistic ceremonies and make sacrifices to pacify their gods. The Celts would bring wood and start their Samhain bonfire or, fire festival, on the hilltop. Often, they would throw the bones of slaughtered cattle into the flames. The word “bonfire” is said to be derived from such “bone fires.” Bonfires and sacrifices guaranteed that the sun would burn brightly after a long, dreary winter. It’s common to witness hundreds of traditional bonfires in Ireland every year on Halloween Night.
How many of you have bon fires on Halloween?

HALLOW-FACT of The Day- 3 Days to HALLOW-DEGASM
There is a Halloween legend that states that:
You can use a mirror to see the face of your Soul Mate. First, you must light a single candle. Just before midnight on Halloween all others must leave the room and you must darken the room except for your candle. Facing the mirror and holding the candle in front of you with both hands, you must close your eyes and count to twelve. When you get to twelve you can open your eyes. In the mirror, just over your shoulder, you may see the reflection of the face of your Soul Mate. The image may disappear quickly, but, whatever you do, don’t turn around until its gone.
