"This year, we're celebrating Samhain the way it should be celebrated."

"That's funny… I thought we were celebrating Halloween, Jane."

"Samhain is Halloween, silly! We got our holiday of Halloween from the pre-Christian Celtic New Year festival, Samhain, October 31st, when the supernatural world draws closer to the physical world, and human beings are more susceptible to the power and influence of the unseen! We're just returning to our roots!"

"Jane, we aren't Celtic!"

"Of course we are. Mommy was Celtic."

"Mommy's maiden name was Herkenhoff. That isn't even remotely Celtic. Not even remotely!"

"Don't be a spoilsport, Skye."
