Happy All Saints Day! As Fr. Matthew reminds us, today we celebrate all the saints — not just those canonized and known to the Church, but also the hidden saints known only to God. These are the souls who lived their lives faithfully, quietly, and heroically, fulfilling the will of God in the ordinary duties of their daily lives. This feast is meant to be your feast day too. God desires every one of us to become a saint, to be counted among the Church Triumphant in Heaven.The Church's liturgical calendar these three days — All Hallows' Eve, All Saints, and All Souls — beautifully unites the three parts of the Church: the Church Triumphant (Heaven), the Church Suffering (Purgatory), and the Church Militant (Earth). Together, we form the one Body of Christ, called to live in holiness and communion. As Fr. Matthew explains, Scripture and Tradition tell us that the saints in Heaven will one day complete the number of angels who fell from grace. When that number is filled, Christ will come again, and the world will be renewed in glory.But sainthood doesn't come through extraordinary deeds alone. Fr. Matthew points us to abandonment to divine providence: sanctity can be reduced to one simple practice — fidelity to the duties God has appointed to you. “Thy will be done” isn't just a prayer — it's a daily way of life. Whether through marriage, priesthood, religious life, or single vocation, holiness comes through doing God's will with love, perseverance, and surrender.As St. John saw in Revelation, the saints are marked with the seal of God on their foreheads — a seal first received in Baptism. To remain faithful to that seal means living out our baptismal promises with purity and love, so that our white garments may remain spotless when we stand before God.Remember, sainthood is not reserved for a few — it's your destiny if you cooperate with grace. Strive each day to purify your heart, grow in virtue, and surrender your will to God. As Fr. Matthew says, “Don't delay becoming a saint.” Purgatory is for those who procrastinate holiness; Heaven is for those who say yes to God now.Watch more inspiring Daily Homilies like this and grow in faith at DivineMercyPlus.org and on the free, ad-free Divine Mercy Plus (DM+) app. Visit the link in bio for prayers, devotions, and Catholic resources to help you live out your call to holiness today.#frmatt #marian #marians #marianfathers #marianhelpers #divinemercy #thedivinemercy #catholic #catholicism #romancatholic #romancatholicism #allsaintsday #communionofsaints #holiness #vocation #grace #heaven #purgatory #faith #virtue #jesus #catholictiktok ★ Support this podcast ★

Transcript:Hu: Az őszi szellő leveleket sodort végig a gimnázium udvarán, mikor Bence álmosan sétált be az épületbe.En: The autumn breeze swept leaves across the high school courtyard as Bence sleepily walked into the building.Hu: Egy félhomályos reggelen, a levegőben All Hallows' Day (Mindenszentek) közeledtének illata terjengett.En: On this dimly lit morning, the air was filled with the scent of the approaching "All Hallows' Day (Mindenszentek)".Hu: A folyosókon diákok nyüzsögtek, nevetéssel és halk morajlással töltve meg a levegőt.En: The hallways bustled with students, filling the air with laughter and a low murmur.Hu: Bence, a szórakozott, de szerethető fiú, már majdnem az osztályteremhez ért, amikor furcsa, kaparászó hangot hallott a „hátizsákjából”.En: Bence, the absent-minded yet lovable boy, was almost at the classroom when he heard a strange scratching sound from his "backpack".Hu: Rövid riadalom után belenézett, és döbbenettel látta meg szeretett tyúkját, Nuggetet, ahogy bájosan pillantott rá.En: After a moment of panic, he looked inside and was astonished to see his beloved chicken, Nugget, looking up at him sweetly.Hu: „Hogy kerülhettél ide?” – suttogta Bence, bár már tudta, hogy az otthoni sietség és szórakozottság közrejátszott.En: “How did you get in there?” Bence whispered, though he already knew that the morning rush and his absent-mindedness played a part.Hu: Az osztályteremben már mindenki a helyén ült, amikor Bence belépett.En: By the time Bence entered the classroom, everyone was already seated.Hu: Lili és Ákos sokatmondó pillantást váltottak vele – ők voltak Bence legjobb barátai, és persze mindent tudtak Nuggetről.En: Lili and Ákos exchanged a meaningful glance with him—they were Bence's best friends and, of course, knew all about Nugget.Hu: Az órák csendesen teltek, mígnem az első csendes pillanatban Nugget klaktoló hangja áttörte az osztály halk duruzsolását.En: Classes went on quietly until during the first silent moment, Nugget's clucking broke through the classroom's gentle buzz.Hu: Az osztályban minden tekintet Bencére szegeződött, és a fiatal fiú kétségbeesetten próbálta megnyugtatni a tyúkot.En: Everyone's eyes were on Bence, and the young boy desperately tried to calm the chicken.Hu: Gyorsan döntött: az első szünetben biztonságba helyezi Nuggetet a szekrényében.En: He quickly decided to secure Nugget in his locker during the first break.Hu: Sikerült is ügyesen megoldania a dolgot.En: He managed to handle the situation skillfully.Hu: A következő órákra Nuggetet elrejtette, bár a kis szárnyas többször is megpróbált szabaddá válni.En: For the next few classes, Nugget was hidden away, although the little fowl tried to break free several times.Hu: A tanórák vége előtt azonban újabb bonyodalom lobbant fel: az igazgató váratlan szekrény-ellenőrzést tartott, és Nugget kitört a fogságból.En: However, before classes ended, a new complication arose: the principal conducted an unexpected locker inspection, and Nugget escaped from captivity.Hu: A tyúk gyorsan szaladt végig a folyosón, klakkolva, míg Bence mögötte loholt néhány kenyérmorzsával, miközben a többiek nevetve figyelték a jelenetet.En: The chicken quickly ran down the hallway, clucking, while Bence chased after with some bread crumbs, and the others watched the scene with laughter.Hu: Végül a kacagástól feldobott diákok sorfala között Bence ügyesen elkísérte Nuggetet vissza.En: Finally, amidst the cheer of amused students, Bence skillfully escorted Nugget back.Hu: „Mi ez a hangzavar?” – kérdezte az igazgató, aki kíváncsian követte a jelenetet.En: “What is all this ruckus?” asked the principal, who curiously followed the scene.Hu: Miután Bence megmagyarázta a helyzetet, az igazgató nem tudott haragudni.En: After Bence explained the situation, the principal couldn't be angry.Hu: Inkább mosollyal javasolta, hogy Nugget tölthetné a hátralévő napot a biológia teremben, ahol jól megférne az állatkákkal.En: Instead, with a smile, he suggested that Nugget could spend the rest of the day in the biology room, where she would fit well with the other animals.Hu: Az incidens végére Bence megkönnyebbülten sóhajtott.En: By the end of the incident, Bence sighed with relief.Hu: Rájött, hogy érdemes dupla csekket csinálni a holmijain reggelente.En: He realized it was worth double-checking his belongings in the mornings.Hu: Az is kiderült, hogy furcsaságai nem csak elfogadhatók a társai számára, de még szórakoztatóak is.En: It also turned out that his peculiarities were not only acceptable to his peers but also entertaining.Hu: Egy kicsit közelebb érezte magát a többiekhez, miközben az őszi nap lebukott a horizonton, és az iskola még mindig tele volt élettel, sok nevetéssel és történetekkel.En: He felt a bit closer to the others as the autumn sun set beneath the horizon, and the school remained alive with laughter and stories.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: The Accidental Knights: An Unforgettable Day in Budapest Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-11-04-23-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: Őszi nap volt Budapesten, amikor Réka és Zoltán találkoztak a Vajdahunyad váránál.En: It was an autumn day in Budapest when Réka and Zoltán met at Vajdahunyad Castle.Hu: Réka imádta a történelemet.En: Réka loved history.Hu: Mindig is arról álmodott, hogy egyszer igazi kalandokat él át a múltban.En: She had always dreamed of one day experiencing real adventures in the past.Hu: Zoltán ezzel szemben inkább a modern, vidám ünnepeket kedvelte.En: Zoltán, on the other hand, preferred modern, cheerful celebrations.Hu: Úgy gondolta, hogy a mai napon szórakozik majd, hiszen All Hallows' Even, vagyis Mindenszentek estéje közeledett.En: He thought he would have fun today, as All Hallows' Even, or All Saints' Eve, was approaching.Hu: A két barát azt hitte, hogy fesztivál lesz a vár körül.En: The two friends believed there would be a festival around the castle.Hu: Ahogy beléptek a kapun, észrevették, hogy a park tele volt középkori ruhába öltözött emberekkel.En: As they entered the gate, they noticed that the park was filled with people dressed in medieval clothing.Hu: Rékának csillogtak a szemei.En: Réka's eyes sparkled.Hu: „Nézd, Zoltán! Mintha időutazásra érkeztünk volna!”En: "Look, Zoltán! It's like we've arrived on a time travel adventure!"Hu: Zoltán viszont enyhén zavart volt.En: Zoltán, however, was slightly confused.Hu: „Nos, biztos vagy benne, hogy ez a fesztivál?” kérdezte kétkedve.En: “Well, are you sure this is the festival?” he asked doubtfully.Hu: Bent a vár udvarában a macskakövek alatt sárgás-vöröses falevelek zizegtek.En: Inside the castle courtyard, yellowish-reddish leaves rustled under the cobblestones.Hu: A levegőben fahéj és fahéjas alma illat érzett.En: The scent of cinnamon and cinnamon apples filled the air.Hu: Réka és Zoltán hamar kiderítette, hogy történelmi újrajátszás folyik.En: Réka and Zoltán quickly found out that a historical reenactment was taking place.Hu: Mindenki kosztümbe bújt, csak ők lógtak ki modern ruháikban.En: Everyone was in costume, and only they stood out in their modern clothes.Hu: Réka imádta a látványt, míg Zoltán még mindig rázott egy kicsit a fejét.En: Réka loved the sight, while Zoltán was still shaking his head a little.Hu: „Nem erre számítottam, Réka. Hol van a zene? Hol vannak a grillkolbászok?”En: "This is not what I expected, Réka. Where's the music? Where are the grilled sausages?"Hu: „Adj esélyt!” - Réka könyörgött.En: “Give it a chance!” Réka pleaded.Hu: „Talán megtalálod a neked valót!”En: “Maybe you'll find something you like!”Hu: Amint tovább sétáltak, egy csoport hátrált feléjük.En: As they continued to walk, a group backed towards them.Hu: Kiderült, hogy egy imitációs kardharcot tartanak.En: It turned out they were holding an imitation sword fight.Hu: A harcosok régi páncélokat viseltek, és kardokkal suhantak.En: The warriors wore old armor and swung swords.Hu: Hirtelen mindkét barátot bevonták a forgatagba.En: Suddenly, both friends were drawn into the whirlwind.Hu: A levegő zúgott körülöttük, és a kardok villogtak.En: The air buzzed around them, and the swords flashed.Hu: Réka nevetett a helyzet abszurditásán, míg Zoltán igyekezett vigyázni, hogy ne bántódjon meg senki.En: Réka laughed at the absurdity of the situation, while Zoltán tried to be careful not to hurt anyone.Hu: Végül a harcosok abbahagyták a küzdelmet.En: Eventually, the warriors stopped fighting.Hu: A jelenlévők tapsoltak és ujjongtak.En: The spectators clapped and cheered.Hu: „Bátor vagy!” - kiáltotta az egyik harcos Rékának.En: “You're brave!” shouted one of the warriors to Réka.Hu: Az esemény szervezői megjutalmazták a párost jó humorukért és részvételükért.En: The event organizers rewarded the pair for their good humor and participation.Hu: Kaptak egy rögtönzött ceremóniát, ami végén „tiszteletbeli lovagokként” üdvözölték őket.En: They received an impromptu ceremony, at the end of which they were welcomed as “honorary knights.”Hu: Réka boldogan és elégedetten mosolygott, hogy egy kis spontaneitás milyen csodálatos élményt hozhat.En: Réka smiled happily and contentedly at how a bit of spontaneity could bring such a wonderful experience.Hu: Zoltán pedig ráeszmélt, hogy a történelem is lehet szórakoztató.En: Zoltán realized that history could be entertaining too.Hu: Ahogy a nap lebukott a fák mögött, a két barát boldogan ballagott ki a várból.En: As the sun set behind the trees, the two friends happily strolled out of the castle.Hu: „Nos, Réka, azt hiszem, találtunk valami igazán különlegeset ma” - mondta Zoltán.En: “Well, Réka, I think we found something truly special today,” said Zoltán.Hu: Réka nevetett, és bólintott.En: Réka laughed and nodded.Hu: „Igen, és talán legközelebb már tudni fogjuk, hogy egy történelmi rendezvény is lehet olyan varázslatos, mint egy fesztivál.”En: “Yes, and maybe next time we'll know that a historical event can be as magical as a festival.” Vocabulary Words:autumn: ősziexperience: él átadventure: kalandapproaching: közeledettmedieval: középkoricheerful: vidámcourtyard: udvarábancobblestones: macskakövekscent: illatcinnamon: fahéjreenactment: újrajátszáscostume: kosztümsparkled: csillogtakarmor: páncélokwhirlwind: forgatagbuzzed: zúgottabsurdity: abszurditásánspectators: jelenlévőkimpromptu: rögtönzöttspontaneity: spontaneitásparticipation: részvételükérthonorary: tiszteletbelistrolled: ballagottentertaining: szórakoztatófestival: fesztiválhistorical: történelmimagical: varázslatosarmor: páncélrewarded: megjutalmaztákknights: lovagok
November Second is a Christian feast day of prayer and remembrance for the deceased, known as All Souls Day, observed by the Roman Catholic Church, some Anglican and Lutheran denominations, and various Eastern Orthodox and Eastern Catholic churches. Christians honor the departed through prayer, Mass, and acts of charity, with many traditions involving visiting cemeteries to decorate graves. The observance grew out of earlier Christian traditions of praying for the dead. The practice has roots in the belief that the living can assist those who have died through prayer, love, and sacrifice. It’s the last day of Allhallowtide, a Christian season which lasts three days that also includes All Hallows' Eve (also known as the secular Halloween on October 31st) which initiates Allhallowtide, and concludes November second with All Souls' Day.

Today marks All Saints' Day, also known as All Hallows' Day or the Feast of All Hallows. That's why Hallowe'en is called that - it's All Hallow's Eve. The day celebrates saints, but the far more interesting day for folklore is tomorrow - All Souls' Day. All Souls' Day marks remembrance of the dead, whether that's visiting graves, praying for the dearly departed, or practising other family customs. Given it's a day dedicated to the dead, I thought it would be a great time to hear some more unnerving and uncanny experiences from listeners of Fabulous Folklore… Find the images and references on the blog post: https://www.icysedgwick.com/supernatural-experiences-4/ Get your free guide to home protection the folklore way here: https://www.icysedgwick.com/fab-folklore/ Become a member of the Fabulous Folklore Family for bonus episodes and articles at https://patreon.com/bePatron?u=2380595 Buy Icy a coffee or sign up for bonus episodes at: https://ko-fi.com/icysedgwick Fabulous Folklore Bookshop: https://uk.bookshop.org/shop/fabulous_folklore Pre-recorded illustrated talks: https://ko-fi.com/icysedgwick/shop Request an episode: https://forms.gle/gqG7xQNLfbMg1mDv7 Get extra snippets of folklore on Instagram at https://instagram.com/icysedgwick Find Icy on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/icysedgwick.bsky.social 'Like' Fabulous Folklore on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/fabulousfolklore/
Halloween is an odd event—very odd, in a way, because in its origins it was not evil; it was actually good. A number of you probably know that Halloween is All Hallows Even; in other words, All Hallows Eve—the evening before All Hallows. And All Hallows is All Saints day. And, originally, All Saints Day (November 1st) was the day when all the saints were honored. In other words, it's a time that the Church had set aside to honor those people who had lived exemplary lives, who had blessed others by their lives, and were considered saints by the Church at that time.October 31st, though, among non-Christian Celtic people, was a different matter altogether. It was the festival of Samhain. What you may not know is the fact it was also New Year's Eve in Celtic and Anglo-Saxon England at that time. It was actually the end of the old year and the beginning of the new. It took place in the autumn, as a matter of fact. It was an occasion for fire festivals, they lit huge bonfires on top of hills to frighten off the evil spirits, and also it was a time when laws and land tenures were renewed.It harkens back, in a way, to the Old Testament. You'll recall where, in the year of release, all the captives were released. People who have been enslaved because of having been a thief and caught and sold into slavery were turned loose, in the seventh year. That was always in the autumn, not in the spring. In that Jubilee year, all the land again went back to its original family owner—the one who received it by lot. Here they had, in the autumn, a time when all the laws and land tenures were renewed.In the Celtic religions, the dead were supposed to visit their homes on this night. As a consequence, you get the sinister aspects of the festival. And, of course, you had the Celtic Church right alongside of the Roman Church; and the gradual melding that took place in these things over time created something along the lines of Halloween. And though it really became in later times a secular holiday, at the same time it has also retained a lot of those sinister overtones.Halloween was thought to be the most favorable time for divinations, for marriage, for health, for death, and for luck. And it was the only day when the help of the Devil was invoked in such matters. I think that is fascinating. For people who call themselves Christians—who are believers in Christ, people who try to serve God—you can almost see how it would be tempting, in certain circumstances (and I want to talk about that a little later), to get some guidance from that side of the spirit world.Halloween is a night of great evil. But really, it's a night of great evil only because the Devil is invoked in some of the customs and some of the practices. If it were nothing but a harvest festival, it probably wouldn't amount to much. The question is: Is there really a Devil, and are there demons in a spirit world that come out on Halloween or at other times? I recently received a letter from a long-time correspondent, and he had what I think is easily the most comprehensive set of questions about the spirit world and the paranormal that I have ever received in my life. I mean, to answer it would require me to write a book, Everything You Always Wanted to Know About the Spirit World But Were Afraid To Ask. And he gave me a really good list. He asked me about spirit sightings, dreams that come true, UFOs, abductions, strange lights, hauntings, healings, psychics, miracles that seem to have nothing to do with God and yet are miracles, and a whole long list. And he asked that, somewhere along the line, I would do a sermon or a tape or something on the subject. And so you owe this sermon today to my friend who wrote to me about this.

While “Halloween” for most people involves scary costumes, candy, and jack-o'-lanterns, the Ladies are tracing the word back to its roots — “All Hallows' Eve” — as they team up to plan a Halloween-alternative All Saints/Reformation Day party around the theme of “saints, reformers, and heretics.”* The episode starts with each of the Ladies suggesting a pair of apropos costume ideas. Sarah then shares a curated Spotify playlist (link here) to set the musical mood before providing a range of ideas for party decorations, favors, and crafts. With the party “vibes” all in order, Erin offers recipes fit for a feast and Rachel demonstrates a handful of fun party games, including “Two Doctrines and a Heresy” and saints-based pub trivia.

Friends of the Rosary,Tomorrow, November 1, is the solemnity of All Saints, and today, October 31, is the Eve of All Saints, commonly known as Halloween. In England, saints or holy people are called “hallowed,” hence the name “All Hallows' Day.”Pope Sixtus IV, in 1484, established November 1 as the feast of All Saints, a holy day of obligation, and assigned both a vigil, “All Hallows' Eve” or “Hallowe'en”. However, the current missal does not have a vigil Mass for the feast. And Halloween is not a liturgical feast on the Catholic calendar.The three consecutive days — Halloween, All Saints Day, and All Souls Day — illustrate the Communion of Saints.The Church Militant — that is, we, those on earth, striving to get to heaven — rejoices and honors the Church Triumphant — the saints, canonized and uncanonized in heaven. And we ask for the Saints' intercession.The Church Militant prays also for the Church Suffering — those souls in Purgatory — especially on All Souls Day and during the entire month of November.Halloween is a combination of the preparation for and celebration of two upcoming feasts. This feast has been adopted by the secular world, with all the demonic and witchcraft imagery, but the roots of the celebration are firmly grounded in Catholic tradition.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

As Fr. Chris Alar explains, the evening we now call Halloween began not as a pagan ritual, but as a sacred Christian vigil—All Hallows' Eve, the holy night before the solemnity of All Saints' Day. This feast, instituted in the 700s, has always been a time to honor the saints and pray for the faithful departed. The Church's ancient practice of vigils reflected the truth that holy days begin at sundown, anticipating the joy of what is to come.Many claim Halloween is rooted in paganism, yet history says otherwise. Popes Gregory III and IV, who established the feast and its vigil, had no knowledge of the Celtic festival of Samhain. While certain customs like bonfires, costumes, and carved lanterns existed in pagan Europe, their Christian meaning transformed them: light overcoming darkness, prayers for the dead, and the triumph of holiness over sin. As with the Christmas tree, these cultural remnants were baptized—not banned—by the Church.Our Catholic ancestors saw All Hallows' Eve as a time to remember that life on earth is fleeting and that Heaven, Purgatory, and Hell are real. The “veil” between the visible and invisible was thought to thin, reminding us of the souls who need our prayers. Even “trick or treating” began as the holy custom of souling—children receiving soul cakes in exchange for praying for the dead. The jack-o'-lantern, too, once symbolized the light of Christ and the souls awaiting redemption.Halloween became distorted after the Reformation, when anti-Catholic sentiment labeled the feast “pagan.” Puritans even outlawed it in early America, erasing its sacred meaning. But the Church has never ceased to teach that this vigil belongs to Christ. It is not a night to glorify evil, witchcraft, or fear—but a night to honor the saints, pray for the departed, and rejoice in God's victory over death.“Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good” (Romans 12:21). May this Holy Eve draw us closer to the Communion of Saints and remind us that holiness conquers darkness.Learn more about the truth behind Catholic tradition in Fr.

This '80s flick is to All Hallows' Eve what "A Christmas Story" is to Christmas: a true classic deserving a 24-hour marathon and a wild all-night celebration where blood takes the place of alcohol. Director Tom Holland's heartfelt homage to vampire movies breathed new life into a horror subgenre that was, sadly, starting to fade away, much like an undead creature of the night. It brought the vampire back into the spotlight, setting the stage for other nostalgic blood-sucking hits of the era, such as "The Lost Boys", "Near Dark", and "Bram Stoker's Dracula".So grab your binoculars, crucifix, and garlic necklace as Tim Williams and guest co-host Chris Evans discuss “Fright Night” from 1985 on this special Halloween episode of the 80s Flick Flashback podcast!Here are some additional behind-the-scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode:According to Chris Sarandon, he wanted Jerry to whistle "Whistle While You Work" rather than "Strangers in the Night" when first confronting Charley. But Disney would not give their permission to use the song.To evoke a genuine frightened reaction when Charley first sees Amy as a vampire, William Ragsdale did not see the stunt actress in makeup beforehand.Evil Ed's complex death scene, designed by Edlund and Bruno, strategically used darkness and quick cuts to obscure details. They intentionally reduced the lighting, relying on elements like a swinging chandelier that Wolf Ed crashes into. Visual effects cinematographer Bill Neil stated this swinging light was crucial, as the shifting shadows allowed them to hold shots longer, making the "brief glimpses" of the character highly effective.Sources:Wikipedia, IMDB, Box Office Mojohttps://www.dreadcentral.com/lists/261132/fearsome-facts-8-things-didnt-know-fright-night-1985/Some sections were composed by ChatGPTWe'd love to hear your thoughts on our podcast!

Send us a textNow in a nutshell, the history of Halloween and how it developed can be described in a few sentences. You see, Halloween originated from the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, which marked the end of summer and the harvest, and the beginning of the dark, cold winter. The Celts believed that on the night of October 31st, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred, allowing spirits to return to Earth. They would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts. Later, the Roman Empire combined Samhain with their own festivals, and as Christianity spread, the church established All Saints' Day on November 1st, making October 31st "All Hallows' Eve," or Halloween. In this episode,I would like to describe what I believe are the five best pieces of classical music associated with Halloween - in other words the scariest music.I would like to start - in each case after an introduction and description - with a beautiful piece of music by the great French composer Camille Saint-Saëns. This music is from a CD I did called FallingWater Dreams where I used basic midi files to start with, and do some arrangements of classical music. You know this was many years ago ago, because this was back in a time when basic midi files were not copyright. This selection is called Aquarium and is from the Carnival of Animals. In the spirit of this podcast episode, I think Aquarium has a beautiful, but extremely eerie quality about it - not the kind of hard-core horror that is associated with some upcoming pieces in this podcast episode. You could almost call aquarium to be creepy creepy. Again, first before playing each specific piece of music - and there should be five - I am going to make some comments about that piece of music, it's history, and in some cases = it's influences.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

Trending with Timmerie - Catholic Principals applied to today's experiences.
Do you carve a Jack O'Lantern with your kids around Halloween? It may be an enjoyable tradition for your family, but did you know there's a deeper legend to the Jack O'Lantern? It should give you a chilling reminder of the presence of evil and why you need to teach your kids to never dabble in it. With Halloween approaching, Timmerie emphasizes the Catholic origins of the holiday, noting that it's historically known as All Hallows' Eve. She addresses misconceptions about Halloween, highlighting the need to understand and embrace its Catholic roots while being cautious of certain practices associated with the holiday. Timmerie shares her curiosity about the Jack O'Lantern after hearing someone express reservations about letting their child carve one. This prompted her to research its history, leading her to discover its origins in an Irish myth about a man named Stingy Jack. The story tells of Jack tricking the devil on multiple occasions, resulting in him being denied entry to both heaven and hell upon his death. Left to wander the earth, Jack carries a glowing coal inside a carved turnip, which evolved into the modern-day Jack O'Lantern. This legend, Timmerie believes, offers a valuable lesson about the dangers of meddling with the devil. She mentions the importance of recognizing and teaching the realities of heaven, hell, and purgatory, especially to your kids. The story serves as a reminder to always choose God's path and resist the temptations of evil. As Halloween has roots in the celebration of All Saints Day, Timmerie encourages you to embrace its true meaning by commemorating the lives of the saints and Christ's triumph over evil. Timmerie invites you to reflect on how you can incorporate more Catholic elements into your Halloween celebrations, especially in light of the rich history and teachings that the holiday holds for the faithful.
Forget pumpkins and plastic skeletons, in Tudor England, Halloween was sacred. On 31st October, All Hallows' Eve marked the start of Hallowtide, a three-day festival blending pagan Samhain customs with Christian devotion: - All Hallows' Eve (Halloween) – ringing bells, lighting bonfires, wearing masks to ward off spirits, and “souling” for cakes to pray for the dead. - All Saints' Day (1 November) – honouring every saint and martyr in heaven. - All Souls' Day (2 November) – remembering all the departed, especially those in Purgatory. In this episode, I step back into Tudor England to uncover: - The origins of apple bobbing and “Nutcrack Night” - How souling became the forerunner of trick-or-treating - Why Hallowtide was both festive and deeply spiritual, a time to bridge the worlds of the living and the dead So if you've ever wondered what Halloween meant before horror films and sweets, this is the story of how the Tudors honoured the dead, celebrated life, and kept the darkness at bay. #Halloween #TudorHistory #HalloweenHistory #Hallowtide #OnThisDay #AllHallowsEve #AllSaintsDay #AllSoulsDay #AnneBoleynFiles
This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana (with cameos from Lily and Gizmo) finish out the Halloween season with the 1985 horror-comedy Re-Animator. To celebrate All Hallows' Eve eve, we dive deep into all the over-the-top gore and total mad scientist nonsense this movie produces. The movie has a slow silly buildup that explodes into an insane final 20 minutes. No future stars in the one, but of course, there is a hidden Seinfeld person. Enjoy the podcast and have a very happy Halloween!!Jason, Andy and Dana will discuss a 1985 movie weekly, breaking down all the nonsense there within. The 3 hosts all work together and everyone else around them was getting really annoyed at all the movie talk, so they decided to annoy the world in podcast form.Check out previous seasons to hear them discuss 1982, 1983 & 1984 movies, as well as a full season of Love Boat episodes (if that is your thing).

Happy Halloween! To celebrate the season as well as our 50th Episode (wow!) we invited our friend Jen back to discuss two brand new horror films just in time for All Hallows' Eve - The Black Phone 2 and Shelby Oaks!
On the surface, Halloween looks like harmless fun—costumes, candy, and spooky decorations. But peel back the mask, and you'll find something far darker. In this episode, we trace the roots of October 31 from the pagan fire rituals of Samhain, through Rome's rebranding as “All Hallows' Eve,” into modern occult practice, and finally to the billion-dollar candy industry that keeps it alive. We'll uncover how elites use fear, ritual, and inversion to keep the masses distracted—burying the true meaning of this day, the Protestant Reformation of 1517, under pumpkins and ghosts. Halloween isn't just a holiday; it's a ritual of death dressed up in sugar.Email: thefaacthunter@mail.com

Every year, Ashford Hollow holds its quaint All Hallows' Eve Festival, complete with pumpkin carving, a costume parade, and the traditional twelve chimes from the church bell at the witching hour. But this year, after the final twelfth chime… a thirteenth toll rings out. The festival's Pumpkin Queen has vanished, her carved pumpkin crown smashed to pieces in the town square. The smell of burnt sage hangs in the air, and faint, eerie laughter from somewhere high in the bell tower.-------If you liked this episode, please leave a rating and review to help us spread the word and don't forget to share with your friends.

This episode was first released on October 27, 2023 In this episode, we discuss the article Father Anthony wrote for our publication The Seraph for November. He broke down All Hallows' Eve, All Saints' Day, & All Souls' Day as a guide to help us end the Liturgical Year with a sense of hope that will drive our love for the faith. As promised, here is the short form of the Baptismal Vows: "I renounce Satan and all his works and I pledge myself to Jesus Christ forever!"
In this episode, we examine why Christians should have no part in Halloween. Far from being an innocent night of costumes and candy, Halloween's origins trace back to ancient pagan festivals, death symbolism, and demonic ritual practices that directly oppose the light of Christ.We trace the roots of Halloween to the Celtic festival of Samhain, explore how pagan practices survived under Christianized names like All Hallows' Eve, and unpack the meanings behind common symbols — from jack-o'-lanterns and costumes to ghosts, witches, and bonfires. Each carries a legacy of superstition, fear, and false worship.The episode also features powerful testimonies from former witches and occult practitioners who now follow Christ — all warning believers not to participate in what they once used to honor darkness:Doreen Virtue – Deceived No More (Thomas Nelson, 2020) Jenny Weaver – CBN News Interview, Former Witch Warns Christians Against Halloween (2019) John Ramirez – Out of the Devil's Cauldron (2015), Charisma Magazine Interview (2018) Pastor Aaron then connects the modern church's compromise with what Scripture calls Baalism — lowering our view of God by blending light and darkness. Using Ephesians 5:6–15 and 2 Corinthians 6:14–17, he challenges believers to reject the imitation of holiness through worldly means and to “walk as children of light.”Whether you've participated in Halloween out of ignorance or tradition, this episode calls every believer to reconsider: Are we reflecting Christ's light — or justifying the darkness?
It's the final week of October, which means we're days away from All Hallows' Eve.

On The Patrick Madrid Show, Jacqueline from Long Beach calls in with a question: Is it okay for Catholics to celebrate Halloween? Patrick explains that Halloween actually began as “All Hallows’ Eve,” the vigil before All Saints' Day, a time meant to honor the saints in heaven and pray for the faithful departed. While the modern version has become more secular – and sometimes includes dark or occult themes – its origins are deeply Catholic. Patrick shares that in his own family, they’ve always enjoyed Halloween, but in a way that keeps faith front and center. His wife, Nancy, made saint costumes for their 11 kids – like St. Michael the Archangel, St. Thérèse of Ávila, and even the Pope – so that their trick-or-treating became a lighthearted witness to Christ. Neighbors were often surprised and delighted when they met “little saints” at their doors, sparking small but meaningful conversations about faith. He reminds you that there’s nothing sinful about dressing up or collecting candy, as long as families avoid celebrating evil and instead use the day to point to God’s goodness and the communion of saints. Still, while Patrick may disagree, he respects parents who choose to skip Halloween out of devotion or caution. His advice: pray, follow your conscience, and make decisions that keep Christ at the heart of your home.
THIS HALLOWEEN, MONSTER PARTY IS GIVING YOU A MOUTHFUL! JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD, celebrate All Hallows' Eve with a pulse-pounding potpourri of petrifying pearly whites! Can your orthodontist stand the gum-numbing terror of… MONSTER TEETH!!!? For many of us monster kids, our introduction to creepy cosplay was getting that first pair of monster teeth. It doesn't matter if they were a purchase, a present, or a discarded treasure found in an ashtray at Macy's; scary plastic teeth hold a sacred place in our memories. It just goes to show how effective a good pair of chompers are for striking terror in the hearts of genre fans. In fact, monster teeth are so important that we felt they deserved their own episode, just in time for the horror days.

Lauretta hosts the program today and takes us on a walk with her over the last's weeks activities: Baby Bottle Donations, Pentecost USA Conference, and Confirmation Class. She recognizes that aside from Respect for Life Month, October is also Domestic Violence Awareness month as well as the month of the Holy Rosary. Lauretta talks about Father Tolton, his life and legacy. On the second half of the show Lauretta focuses on Halloween and All Hallows' Eve drawing attention to remaining connected to our Catholic Faith and not the secular version of the events. She strongly suggests we attend the screening of the film Triumph Over Evil on October 30th. Go to triumphoverevil.com to see the film trailers and to get your tickets. St. Stanislaus Kostka Parish
Is Halloween really demonic? Or have we been getting it wrong all along? In this video, we dive deep into the Christian history of Halloween—how it began, what it meant to early believers, and why modern Christians have let fear replace truth. You'll hear the real story behind All Hallows' Eve, how it was originally a Christian holiday, and why the Church should reclaim Halloween for God's glory instead of running from it.We also respond to claims made by former Satanists and ex-occultists who say Halloween belongs to the devil, and explore what Scripture actually says about light vs darkness, spiritual warfare, and redeeming culture.If you're a new Christian, curious about Jesus, or someone who's been told to “avoid Halloween,” this video will challenge you to think biblically—not fearfully. Let's take back what the enemy stole and shine the light of Christ in every season!Like our content?

We're currently visiting Wales with bookish friends for our Readers Weekend at Trevor Hall. But since Halloween is coming, we thought you might like to revisit our previous episode devoted to Spooky Season. In this episode from 2020, we talk about the origins of Halloween monsters and the tricky laws around selling a haunted house. And we recommend a bunch of books for Halloween, including some fun titles for people who want to get in the spirit but don't like to be scared. Trick or treat! --- SSoP Podcast Episode 17 — Halloween: Costumed Revelry, Voices From Beyond, and YAY, Candy! It's no surprise that most Halloween stories delve into the dark corners and shadows of life. That premise is in the very name of the holiday. Originally known as All Hallows' Eve, it's celebrated just before All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day — two holidays meant to honor the dead. For thousands of years, people all over the world have remembered the lost with candles, rituals, costumes, and revelry. The best Halloween stories produce tingles up the back of the neck, while also, maybe, breaking one's heart just a little bit. After all, good scares and sorrow often go hand-in-ghostly-hand. In this episode, we get curious about Halloween traditions and explore the lore around classic creepy creatures., Then we recommend books that celebrate the spirit (and spirits) of Halloween, including stories for self-proclaimed scaredy-cats, titles that should come with a ‘don't read this at night' warning label,‘ and a few in-between. For more on the books we recommend, plus the other cool stuff we talk about, visit the show notes.

Today, we dive into the heated Halloween debate about Halloween's origins and whether Christians can celebrate it biblically without compromising their faith. We will unpack Halloween's convoluted history, from ancient pagan festivals to modern commercialization of the holiday, and determine whether satanists have taken over All Hallows' Eve. We also reflect on Martin Luther's influence on the Protestant Reformation that was sparked on October 31. Learn how to discern wisely, engage culture boldly, and make faith-driven choices without paranoia. Join us to anchor your decisions in biblical truth and navigate Halloween with clarity and courage.

The Bald and the Beautiful with Trixie Mattel and Katya Zamo
Friends, fans, and fellow seekers of the sublime; it is I, Trixie Mattel. Lend me your trembling hearts, for the hour of All Hallows' Eve draws nigh, and with it, my home shall rise from shadowed mediocrity into gothic immortality. Upon my modest parcel of earth shall stand a citadel of candlelight and cobweb, a mausoleum of wonder where even the moon itself will pause to admire its own reflection. Let it be known, from the ocean to the valley, that I do not merely decorate. I consecrate, conjure, and summon the spirit of October itself to rest upon my dwelling. The wind shall whisper through animatronic ravens and even the bravest trick-or-treaters shall quiver with exultation at the majesty of my 12-foot-tall skeletons. And when the final jack-o'-lantern's flame eventually peters out, may it be said that I, in my boundless fervor for the season, did make the world, for one night at least, marvelously macabre.
