THANK YOU FOR SAVING SAMHAIN!!!
We got just enough to pay the City's fees

Celebrate Halloween in "the Salem of the South" with Witches gathered from all over to mark the night when spirits roam freely and must be appeased and entertained!
This year's sacred rite features traditional soul cakes offering to "the silent company" (our beloved dead), and trials by fire and water (torchlit ritual and apple-bobbing).
An Underworld Ball follows, when black-clad folks dripping silver will dance macabre waltzes, their masked eyes flashing moonlight as you're enveloped within their ecstasy
This year's free divinations include: apple-peel and pumpkin-seed fortunetelling; walnut-shell tosses; and more
