Did witches always ride brooms? No! In fact, long, long ago, witches crept about on tiptoe. On Halloween, they would scare children and cast spells . . . but always from the ground. No witch ever thought of flying—no witch until Druscilla. Druscilla was an old witch with the loudest, creakiest knees anyone had ever heard. But she was determined not to let anything spoil her element of surprise. One Halloween, after many failed attempts at sneaking up on unsuspecting villagers, Druscilla made a discovery that changed the course of witch history.

Annotation. Unleash your inner monster and trick-or-treat your way into a connection with the most magical and scary night of the year: Halloween! Festivals of the Dead like Halloween have been celebrated for thousands of years across many different world cultures. They serve to honour those who have passed and to celebrate death as a natural part of life and an opportunity to welcome in a new beginning. During Samhain, the ancient Celtic festival from which Halloween originates, the veil between this world and the next was believed to be at its thinnest and so since the very beginning, Halloween has been an occasion for effective and potent divination - a chance to connect with 'the other side' or get a glimpse into your future. Now you can harness the eerie power of Halloween every night of year, encountering black cats, vampires, zombies, witches, werewolves, jack-o'-lanterns, skeletons, mummies and characters from the Mexican Day of the Dead tradition including Lady de los Muertos, exquisite candy skulls and more! Each of the 36 richly illustrated cards has an accompanying meaning in the guidebook that features rhyming couplets like those used in ancient storytelling as well as a message of divination for you based on an aspect of Halloween tradition.

Hallowe'en or Hallows' Eve provides a splendid opportunity for participants to celebrate the festivity of this unique cultural event, and for the community to enact unusual customs and quaint traditions originating centuries ago. It is also a night when supernatural spirits are believed to temporarily re-visit the world of the living, and suitably macabre disguises be worn to protect against such entities. From the use of bonfires and jack-o'-lanterns, mischievous pranking and the modern adoption of trick or treating, to the host of supernatural visitors and exotic creatures that have become Halloween folklore, this book explores the various ways of celebrating this night-of-nights. This includes Halloween parties and parades, popular attractions and spooky confectionary, and a generous sprinkling of haunting tales of myth and legend as well. This will allow you to immerse yourself in Hallowe'en; the most elaborate festival of the seasonal harvest and commemoration of ethereal spirits.
