Samhain Stories: The History Of Halloween

from Hocus Pocus Lack Of Focus · host Hocus Pocus Lack Of Focus

Tis the spooky season, and so Dani and Justy are looking into the history of Halloween, from its Gaelic roots in the festival of Samhain right up to the modern candy-n-capitalism extravaganza. Tangents include hooring yourself out in Saudi Arabia (be you Bill Burr, Katie Price, or CM Punk), House Of Guinness, Stingy Jack, haunted houses and ghost trains, and Jumanji.
