History-sode | Why Do We Wear A Custome?

Before candy and costumes, Halloween began as an ancient Celtic festival called Samhain — a time when people believed the spirits could walk among us.
In this History-Sode, Auntie Jo Jo uncovers the story of how masks, disguises, and “guising” became part of our favorite spooky night.
From ancient bonfires to trick-or-treat bags, find out why dressing up on Halloween is really about imagination, courage, and a tiny bit of magic.
