Hallowe’en is Near
It’s the time for horror films, costumes and eating the yearly recommended sugar allowance in a single night.“By Chloe Deas
In Scotland, Hallowe’en has always been a night of significance.
Scots & Irish emigrated to North America in the 19th century. They took their traditions, culture and customs with them – Including Hallowe’en.
“Guising” or “galoshin’” is what Scots called the tradition of going from door to door with a blackened face or mask.
Fear is still a core element of Hallowe’en. Horror films reflect this. People can and do behave irrationally when fear is a factor.
In the twenty-first century it’s a lesson worth mentioning. Fear is irrational. Human beings are capable of causing more harm than any supernatural invention of the mind.
