Halloween 2024, Thursday 31st October
Halloween has deep historical roots from its ancient Celtic origins to contemporary customs, captivating people with its blend of spooky fun and cultural significance. Over time, Halloween evolved into a day of activities like trick-or-treating, carving pumpkin lanterns, festive gatherings, donning costumes and eating treats.
Halloween's origins trace back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, celebrated around 2,000 years ago in northern Europe. Samhain marked the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter, a time associated with death. Celts believed that on the night of October 31st, the boundary between the living and the dead blurred, allowing spirits to return to Earth. They lit bonfires and wore costumes to ward off roaming ghosts.
FelinFach Halloween Candles and Wax Melts
All our candles and wax melts are hand poured with soy wax with traditional Halloween fragrances, Pumpkin Spice and Toffee Apples. Our wax melts can be used in electric wax melters or those which require a tealight. We believe that a tealight adds to the ambience of the wax melts in a way that an electric wax melt warmer does not.

Trick-or-Treating has become the most popular Halloween activity amongst choildren together with the wearing costumes. Today, people of all ages dress up as a wide range of characters, from spooky entities like ghosts and witches to popular culture figures.
