Well around here, at my house, it is one of Glen Danzig's many bands. But if you trace it Celtic origin, and beyond,its meaning, is a mix of All Siaint's Day and the begining of "darkness" aka Halloween. Glen Danzig is a very interesting musician and I do suggest a google search. If any one is familar with Misfits, that is another "Danzig" band.

BamaDan, I'm not sure if you'd be interested, but I just uploaded the pdfs for a game I created 2 or 3 years ago. It's movie trivia, but instead of giving written clues, it is pages of picture clues. You can take a look at it here (http://www.ghoulfriday.com/node/199).

Thanks a bunch! These are perfect. I'm going to try to work some of these in our party this year. It should be very fun. By the way, nice website!

I liked your web site too, Ghoul. It gave me alot of great ideas.

I'm so glad I could help. And thanks for the compliments on the website. Slowly but surely, it's shaping into what I want it to be. I just want it to be useful to other halloweeniacs.
