You won’t be too scared to sleep! –The Book of Halloween

Be warned, this episode about the history of Halloween gets a bit dark, bit I don’t think it’s anything too disturbing. You’ll be fast asleep as stories of the Sidhe and Christianity overwriting ancient harvest celebrations and the like wash over you in soporific detail.
