Halloween Superstitions
General Superstitions:
- No Talking at the dinner table
'The Dumb Supper' was brought to America by the Africans. This an eerie Hallowmas meal - where nobody is allowed to speak, not even whisper. It encourages spirits to come to the table.
- Nutcracker Night
In Britain, people believed that the Devil was a nut-gatherer. At Halloween, nuts were used as magic charms.
- Husband Finding
If a girl puts a sprig of rosemary herb and a silver sixpence under her pillow on Halloween night, she will see her future husband in a dream.
