5. Visit the place where Samhain began
A lot of people think that Halloween is an American festival but it actually started in Ireland, in Co Meath. For the midterm why not find out about the ancient Samhain festival and the lighting of the fires at the hill of ward (Tlachtga), the hill of Tara or Loughcrew Cairns. All of these historical sites are situated close to the Newgrange Hotel.
One thing is for certain- Halloween will still happen. It may be a bit different this year but as long as we all stay safe and look after each other- we can start looking forward to next year.
