Good for beginners
Honestly, the chapter for Divinations & Incantations, which was 30 pages long and had just as many old love folk divinations, really irked me. Iโve been married a dozen years, ergo I am sick of hearing about how to divine my future spouse. It felt like Dunwich couldnโt decide which ones to include, so why not go into detail about every single one? Ugh.As someone whoโs read a number of books on Samhain, this was nice to have everything under one roof so to speak, but I found out little I didnโt already know. Four stars seems fair, though, because just because Iโm well read on the subject doesnโt mean others wonโt find this a gem.

Halloween history
Little book, 223 pages full of facts. Not scary if that is the read you seek during this season. It is informative. Tells the meanings behind the old rituals, pagan perspectives, meanings of Halloween symbols like cats, broomsticks, owls, etc. Tells of lore and legends, herb lore like flying ointments, omens, and incantations. Info on wiccan traditions, candle magic and spells, foods of Halloween and how to conduct a seance. I wanted scary but got schooled on facts...not sorry. Interesting addition to my Halloween shelf.

Interesting
This is mostly a history of Halloween with folktales and lores centered around Scotland/Ireland/Great Britain. There is a few modern day spells that you can do most is things from years past. it's an interesting informative read.

Informative basics
This book is very informative about superstitions, symbols, and meanings of Halloween (Samhain). It does not take the reader to great depths about Paganism or Wicca, but it is not meant to. A very good read to brush up on Halloween lore.

This is a wonderful book for the season of Halloween and any other Fall endeavor for the enterprising witch. It is well written and extremely informative. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to know more about the Halloween tradition. It dispells the common stereotype of the green skinned, wart nosed, pointed hat wearing, broom riding, cauldron stirring crone.Blessed be.Lorraine

Interesting Book
I am about half way through this book- I find it very interesting. Great facts and lore about Halloween. I am not Wicca or Pagan and still find this book enjoyable with great facts. Definitely worth it if you are interested in some background history and information on Halloween.

Halloween Lovers Best Friend!
I adore this book. As a Halloween lover and Witch I originally borrowed this from a friend and was reluctant to give it back! From Halloween lore, to recipies and old customs this book is crammed with long forgotten practices. It only takes me around an hour to read it cover to cover but you'll be glad to have it. Its read at least once a week by me!

Interesting and informative for experienced and beginner alike. The only issue is the colour of the font in the book may be difficult for anyone with sight issues.

Interesting read.
A Witch's Halloween is a pretty good read, contains a fair amount of information about Magick and other stuff like incantations and whatnot.
