In this episode we go back to the very beginnings of Halloween, before it was even called Halloween. Samhain is where this modern tradition started, but who did it? Why? What was the meaning behind it? How did we get to the point where we started asking for candy? How much pop culture has been influenced by this event? Spoiler, way too much to mention.
