This fun, pocket-size book (well, large pocket!) is perfect for your favorite Hallowe'en enthusiast... and perhaps that is you. Within its black covers (which, by the way, are nicely decorated with orange foil accents), author Mickie Mueller shares everything you need to know to celebrate this festival when the veil between the worlds is at its thinnest. Filled with crafts, recipes, spells, tutorials, and other unique ideas, this little book will help you make the most out of this special autumnal time of year. Explore how Hallowe'en was celebrated throughout history, from harvest festivals and the Celtic new year through All Souls Day and trick or treating. Discover décor ideas for home or garden, and learn how cats, bats, ghosts, skeletons, and other popular symbols became associated with Hallowe'en.

The recipes and craft projects in this book include many wonderfully historic ones, like Soul Cakes, for instance, and Old World Turnip Jack o'Lanterns, plus customs for Nutcrack Night. This book is a must have for anyone who already loves Hallowe'en or for anyone who wants to know how to mark the day with a witchy twist.

This little book is a history of Halloween, a party-planning inspiration, and a book of charms all rolled into one. — BookPage
