Jack-O’-Lanterns, soul cakes, and devilish fortune-telling rituals... Oh lawd, it's about to get pretty dark! In Part II of this Halloween history lesson, these ‘90s kids find the origins of some classic Halloween traditions, follow the Church's influence on Samhain (and vice versa) through the Middle Ages, and learn about the hallowed and romantic mischief that stemmed from embracing death in one of the darkest periods of time humanity has ever seen…sound familiar?
