Greetings, fellow Creepypastafarians.

We gather here today to celebrate the greatest holiday there is: one that is not dedicated to a magic carpenter (who was obviously just a very skilled alchemist, mark my words) or requires some 'holy serenity' to commemorate (seriously, how does one even celebrate something in a silent prayer?).

No, we celebrate a proper holiday: one of dancing skeletons, bonfires, wine, maybe some roasted cattle.

We celebrate ''' Samhain! '''

Or Halloween, as we know it in the last 1000 and spare years.

What makes this holiday so special?

Loads of things

In example, have you ever been down because you were born and live as a plain old human? Have you ever thought to yourself: "Why can't I be a werewolf? Or an angel? Or a vampire? Maybe a fae? Why not a walking skeleton? Mayhaps a Nazi animal? Deranged priest? Serial killer with no obvious motive but killing itself? Haunted plate of Italian food?"

You can also use it as an excuse to or.

Or, you can celebrate it in a more traditional way: get drunk, eat some suspicious shrooms, commune with the spirits of the dead, and then have an orgy.

The possibilites are endless!

Hallowen has never had much presence in these regions: it was always seen as something outlandish and extravagant. As such, I only learned of it when I was 9 or so. Thus, it never had much of an influence on me, but it always brought some kind of... I don't know; happiness? Know that feeling/sensation when you walk outside in the night or an early morning, and you take a deep breath of that sweet, frosty air? Something like that.

And this is why this is the greatest holiday in the world: it lets you be what you want to be, be merry, have fun!

' Happy Halloween, my dear friends! '
