Hallowzine #2: Trick-or-Treating & Jack-o'-Lanterns

Hallowzine is back to bring you more of the hidden history of Halloween. This 16-page zine (including covers) features two essays: “The Origins of Trick-or-Treating” & “The Jack-o’-Lantern.”

Halloween has a long history of “guising” (from disguise), begging, and pranking, but trick-or-treat was a relatively late addition to the holiday. How did it emerge? And just what do jack-o’-lanterns have to do with it? Read on to find out!

If you don’t want to print, fold, and staple your own zine, Hallowzine #2 is now available from Microcosm Press!
