Local Pagans Prepare For “Samhain”

Author: Mark O'Brien Source: News 10 (NY)

Title: LOCAL PAGANS PREPARE FOR “SAMHAIN”
While most people know Oct. 31 as Halloween, Pagans call it Samhain (pronounced "SOW-an").
It's an old celebration with Celtic and Gaelic roots as a harvest feast and festival of the dead.
"Samhain has traditionally been a holiday where the veil between the world of the living and the world of the dead is thinnest," explains Rev. Leigh Dupee of the Pagan Alliance Church. He spent Friday preparing for the second annual Samhain celebration in Albany through his church.

Rhianon Nightfire (Ashland, New York) - Email Me
