À propos de cet audio
In this Halloween special of It’s a Death Sentence, we lean right into the season of spooks. From childhood terrors to modern traditions, we explore why Halloween holds such a grip on our imaginations. We wander through our Halloween memories, including the infamous BBC Ghostwatch that traumatised a generation.
We talk broomsticks, witches, and trick-or-treating, dive into how Halloween evolved from ancient Celtic festival Samhain and explore how American pop culture supercharged it into the spectacle we know today.
What You’ll Learn
The Roots of Halloween: How pagan rituals, Christian traditions, and pop culture merged into the festival we celebrate today.
Collective Fear: Why Ghostwatch (1992) terrified a nation and why it still sticks in people’s minds.
Legends and Lanterns: The urban myth of Stingy Jack and why we carve pumpkins every year.
Halloween isn’t just about jump scares - it’s about the stories we carry, the rituals we repeat, and the strange comfort of being a little scared together.
