Overview
The Haunted History of Halloween
The history of America is a story of immigrants. Various groups of new arrivals brought more than luggage when they came here. Our holiday celebrations today have come from all over the world. This program will explain the origins of our Halloween traditions which were largely rooted in ancient religious beliefs and brought to America by our Irish ancestors.

He is active with many historical organizations in Western PA as a part time teacher or volunteer, as well as several retired educator groups. In addition, he is always looking for ways to promote local history and historical sites through presentations and tours.
