Hallowmas, All Hallows, Halloween, Calan Gaeaf, All Saints, Samhain, Dias de los Muertos …
No matter what the (mainly western) religion, the days from 31st October through 2nd. November have a broadly shared significance. These are the days in the year in which the veil between worlds is at its thinnest and during which (depending on your belief system) the living and the dead stand closest or the “thisworlders” and “otherworlders” can almost touch, for better or for worse.
