I believe this was referenced in another book as the first book about Halloween, specifically. It's mostly a collection of folklore, myths, traditions, and customs by their country of origin, predominantly Anglo-Saxon countries. Pretty interesting and there were a lot of older customs that I had never heard of because they probably didn't survive past the middle of the 20th century.

A very boring collection of facts. I was disappointed. It felt like I was just reading the Wikipedia page about Halloween.
