Description
Mary Blain gathers party games in Games for Hallow-E'en, published in New York in 1912. Hallow-e'en is the last night of October, she explains. It is the eve or vigil of All-Hallow's or All Saints' Day. No holiday in all the year is so informal or so marked by fun for grown-ups and children alike. The games that follow suit that informal spirit, favoring laughter over ceremony.
You get a practical party book of old-fashioned Halloween amusements, from fortune games to active play. Blain writes plainly for hosts and hostesses planning an evening's fun. The book suits families, teachers, and Halloween enthusiasts curious about how the holiday was celebrated a century ago, and it offers games still playable today with little preparation.
