Surprisingle Very Accurate!

I saw this documentary for the first time thinking The History Channel would leave out or misconstrue parts about Halloween (Samhain) history, but I was left with my jaw open in awe. It's right on the mark with accuracy from the holiday's Celtic origins to how overblown modern day fear has become.
From someone who has done plenty of research into Halloween traditions, I highly recommend this program to anyone who desires knowledge of what the real history behind Halloween is!

Oh, and Happy Halloween 2010 !!

Ummm...hate to burst your bubble but it's not "that" accurate and there are a few key points missing/wrong perspectives. I guess media can still fool the simple minded....or are you just on crack/forget to take your meds? Also, where have you been gathering your research...wikipedia? LOL

The skeleton of it is accurate (no pun intended).

So what research have you done on Halloween? I hate to burst YOUR bubble, but it didn't originate from the Misfits, lol!
