vanishedone commented on the word hallowe'en
John Hodgman: 'HALLOWE’EN (apostrophe not generally pronounced). Originally called Samhain, this is the traditional Pagan-American holiday in which we ask our children to ponder the fragility of life by dressing them in darkly colored costumes and vision-impairing masks and encouraging them to walk around in the road.'

bilby commented on the word hallowe'en
Tonight is the night
When pumpkins stare
Through sheaves and leaves
Everywhere,
When ghoul and ghost
And goblin host
Dance around their queen.
It's Hallowe'en.
- Harry Behn, 'Hallowe'en'.
