ghosts

I had this concept of taking these older ghosts of a story and bringing them back to life.

To exorcise the ghosts of Paris, they must wait until 2027.

In the run-up to the 2018 midterm elections, Elizabeth Bruenig wrote for the Washington Post that Halloween “gets its depth and intrigue from the layering of things that seem frightening but are really benign — toothy jack-o’-lanterns, ghoulish costumes, tales of ghosts and witches and monsters — atop things that seem benign but are really frightening, such as the passage of the harvest season into the long, cold dark.”

The holiday’s origins date to the 8th century Celtic festival of Samhain, which was intended to ward off the ghosts of the dead that were said to return the night before the fall harvest on Nov. 1.

Some homes will have illuminated jack-o-lanterns, witches or ghosts hanging from trees.
