    About this series

    Halloween or All Hallows Eve is the last night of October, being the eve or vigil of All-Hallow's or All Saint's Day, and no holiday in all the year is so informal or so marked by fun both for grown-ups as well as children as this one. On this night there should be nothing but laughter, fun and mystery. It is the night when Fairies dance, Ghosts, Witches, Devils and mischief-making Elves wander around. It is the night when all sorts of charms and spells are invoked for prying into the future by all young folks and sometimes by folks who are not young. Games for all ages.

      This early 20th-century book about Halloween was intended to give adults insight into one of America's favorite holidays. Tracing the roots of Halloween back to its original as a religious tradition of the peoples of the United Kingdom, Germany, and elsewhere, author Ruth Edna Kelley attempts to show the evolution of Halloween and expose how the current methods of celebration are connected to the past. In addition to history, Kelley, games, and divination methods, many of which have transitioned from Halloween fun to cultural touchstones. This book is intended to give the reader an account of the origin and history of Hallowe'en, how it absorbed some customs belonging to other days in the year,—such as May Day, Midsummer, and Christmas.
