Halloween’s Haunted History Explained
The history of Halloween is explained in the Haunted History of Halloween DVD Set.
The set contains both The Haunted History of Halloween and Haunted Houses. This would make a great addition to your video library, but you’ll want to get it before Halloween so you can watch it while the mood is right.
The Haunted History of Halloween–Discover how trick or treat originated in ancient Ireland’s harvest festivals, when food and sweets were offered to entice the dead to stay in the spirit world.

From ghoulies and ghosties to the origins of the Jack-O-Lantern, THE HAUNTED HISTORY OF HALLOWEEN is a delicious journey into the enchanting past of the spookiest night of the year.
Haunted Houses–Venture inside the most intriguing haunted houses in America to learn their secrets. HAUNTED HOUSES introduces the figures that populate American history’s dark side. Experts explore Old Salem, where the 17th-century witch hunter George Corwin still curses sheriffs today.
