Spooky season is here! October is known as the “spooky scary” month. Have you ever wondered why that was?

Many say that it’s due to Halloween being in October. While this true there is more to understand about this time of year. October as always been viewed as “spooky”, it just wasn’t spooky in the way that we view it today, with spirits coming back from the dead to torture the living and witches roaming the streets tricking and harming townsfolk. This thought process came as a result of Christian Colonization starting around the 10^th century when they were attempting to wipe out the sacred rituals such as Samhain.
