A few years ago, I blogged a short consideration of Halloween. This is a topic that I’ve found myself continually returning to over the years, and so I finally laid out a longer historical survey of the holiday. You can find that posted over at TCI here. The essay is somewhat lengthy, but I think it has some popular and even pastoral value.

Hey Stephen, thanks for putting in the time and effort to publish that very helpful article! Would you happen to have a copy of it that includes the citations, footnotes, etc? Thanks!
Hi Bentley,
In the version I’ve currently posted, all of the citations are parenthetical. I’ve linked to a book upon its first mention, and so you can track down the info that way. You may have to hover your cursor over the book’s title, but the links are there.
