Hello everyone and welcome back!!! Today I’ll be teaching ye about the Samhain festival.

The Irish word ‘Samhain’ came from ‘Samhfhuln’ which means ‘end of summer. Samhain was the biggest festival of the year. It was on the night before the Celtic new year.

People believed that the dead souls would return to the world on this night. A long time ago there was a three – feast at Tara to celebrate Samhain. This festival is now called Halloween.

Thank you for reading my post and make sure to read the next one!!!
