It was believed that spirits rose from the dead and mingled with the living on this day. The Celts left food at their doors to encourage good spirits and wore masks to scare off the bad ones!
Have you visited your local Pumpkin Patch yet?! They have fun for all ages and usually include hay rides, pony rides and petting zoos for the kids, big, fast slides to go down (with your kids!) and of course pick your own pumpkins! Some great ones in the area are: Burke Nursery & Garden Centre, Cox Farms in Centreville, Heather Hill Gardens in Fairfax Station, Mount Vernon, Leesburg Animal Park and Great Country Farms in Bluemont, VA
