Halloween Special 2014 | Gromet's Plaza

To this special 2014 All-Hallows edition of the plaza

There are some that say on Halloween, the veil between the world of the living and the world of the dead is at its thinnest. This allows the spirits of that dark unknown place to more freely walk among us..

You wander through the cemetary, this was supposed to be a short cut home, but on this night it could turn into a longer journey ...

You hear every one of your footsteps as they touch the bare earth, you think to yourself why did I venture out on All-Hallows Eve...

Every snap of a twig, every wisp of the wind thru the branches, the very air that you breathe, all combines to the feeling of unease...

You walk on, every muscle tense, every sense on high-alert, you hear a sound like something rapping on stone, the sounds continues...

You feel drawn to the sound, like it's calling after you, your heart beats faster you feel that's it's almost in your throat, sweat forms on your brow, your limbs shake with fear...

As you near the sound at it's source you see nothing, the sound continues drawing you ever closer, the sound of tapping now deafening, you look at where to sound is coming from - a grave stone...

You let out a blood-curling scream as you look at the face of the tombstone, there lies a name you know all too well, your own...

Run while you still have a chance, get home and enjoy the Halloween Special Edition 2014.

Samhain

The origin of Halloween can be found in the ancient Celtic festival of the dead, Samhain (pronounced SOW-in). From present-day Ireland to the United Kingdom to Bretagne in France, the ancient Celts celebrated October 31st as the day when the normally strict boundaries between the worlds of the living and the dead became mutable, and the ghosts of those who had passed away came back to earth. The celebration coincided with the final harvests of the year, the stockpiling of stores for the cold winter months when the sun set early and rose late, and when nature itself hibernated, dying until its rebirth in the spring.
It was celebrated over the course of several days and had some elements of a Festival of the Dead. Bonfires played a large part in the festivities. People and their livestock would often walk between two bonfires as a cleansing ritual, and the bones of slaughtered livestock were cast into its flames.
